Excellent instructors Excellent instructors with very reasonable prices! It was easy to find a competent tutor and it’s been a great learning experience! I’ve been studying a little more than a year now and everything has been great.

Native speakers! It’s so important to practice with a native speaker. Verbal Planet is an easy and affordable way to be matched with a tutor. Shout out to Aurélie Simon-Chautemps, whose lessons are terrific and whose humor I can’t do without.

No refundable trials I like the fact that you can see the description and background of each tutor, so you can find one that might suit you. Also, it's very convenient to see all available timeslots of tutors and if you are shy to say goodbye you can just stop scheduling classes :) What upset me is the refund policy, each student has only 1 trial and in case for any reason the trial didn't happen, they will not return it to you. Like, in my case, the teacher didn't show up for a lesson, but I wasn't able to use trials anymore to schedule a lesson with some other teachers :/

An excellent teacher and an excellent service My instructor on Verbal planet has helped me immensely. I have been studying Italian for years but have made more progress in the last year with my tutor than ever before. She encourages and challenges me. My progress with Italian has inspired me to start learning French which I am comprehending easily because of my Italian studies. I'm also a fan of Verbal Planet because they don't price gouge. I previously worked with another service who charged too much and kept most of the fees for themselves with less than half going to the actual tutor.

This is a great site This is a great site for booking language lessons. I've been using it for several years. You can choose the profile of your teacher based on location & availability. It's easy to use and flexible to make changes.
