Making sure our children get a well-rounded education is one of our top priorities as parents. Some children do well with the school’s offerings, while others need extra help. Then, some children need a challenge. Preply can help with both of these situations.
With students forced to learn from home in the wake of the COVID pandemic, Preply can be an invaluable resource to keep your children on track.
Preply is a platform for learning subjects, languages or hobbies with tutors of your choice. Parents can use it to supplement subjects their children need extra help with. Or they can use it to challenge their students to learn a new language that isn’t taught at their school.

Recent Data – U.S.
The US. is Preply’s biggest market with the largest demand for tutoring coming from California, New York, Texas and Florida. 26% of learners are studying Spanish, followed by English, French, Chinese and Japanese. English remains the second most popular language of study in the US; a demand generated by relocators, expats and foreign students in-market.
Beyond those popular languages, we also have students learning more niche languages with Icelandic, Catalan and Lithuanian seeing increased demand over the past few months. Many of our learners are studying languages for business purposes, cultural curiosity or trying to better understand their heritage.
