Preply

Live language tutoring with professional tutors for teams working across borders.

Preply is an online language tutoring marketplace in the productivity and business category, connecting learners with professional tutors for live, one-on-one language lessons over video. It is used by individuals and companies that need employees to develop practical language skills for communication with international clients, partners, or teammates. The core problem Preply solves for software companies with global teams or clients is the gap between knowing a language academically and being able to use it fluently in professional settings like sales calls, product negotiations, or technical support conversations. Preply for Business allows HR and operations teams to manage multiple employees' learning subscriptions in one dashboard, track progress, and align lessons with company communication goals. Tutors are available in over 50 languages and learners can filter by tutor specialty, availability, accent, and price.

Who it's for

HR, operations, and L&D teams at software companies with international employees, global clients, or expansion plans into non-English markets. The right moment to adopt Preply Business is when language gaps are visibly slowing client communication, sales conversations, or cross-functional collaboration, and informal self-study has not produced results.

What it does

Preplyin depth.

01

Expert Tutor Matching

Learners can filter tutors by language, specialization (business English, technical vocabulary, conversation), time zone, and hourly rate, then book a trial lesson before committing to a regular schedule. This replaces the hit-or-miss experience of language apps with accountable, personalized instruction.

02

Preply Business Dashboard

Companies get a centralized admin dashboard where HR or operations can assign lesson credits to employees, track hours completed, monitor progress scores, and manage billing across the whole team. This makes it practical to offer language learning as a structured employee benefit.

03

Flexible Scheduling Across Time Zones

Tutors are distributed globally, so employees in any time zone can find availability that fits their working hours without taking lessons during off hours. This is important for distributed software teams where employees may be in Karachi, Kyiv, or Bogota.

04

Lesson Materials and Progress Tracking

Tutors use a shared workspace within Preply to assign vocabulary lists, grammar exercises, and speaking prompts, and learner progress is tracked over time so both the employee and the manager can see measurable improvement. Sessions can be recorded for review.

05

Specialized Business Language Programs

Preply Business includes structured programs focused on professional communication skills like email writing, client presentation language, and negotiation vocabulary, rather than generic conversational fluency. These are relevant for sales engineers, account managers, and customer success teams.

Ecosystem fit

Preply Business integrates with common HR tools for billing and seat management, and lessons take place over a built-in video interface that does not require Zoom or Meet. It typically complements a broader L&D stack that might include platforms like Coursera or LinkedIn Learning for technical skills, with Preply handling the live communication side.

Where teams use it

Commonuse cases.

01

Preparing a technical sales team to pitch and negotiate in a second language

A software company expanding into a new geographic market can use Preply Business to enroll the sales team in business-focused lessons in the target language ahead of market entry. Tutors can role-play pitch scenarios and help team members handle objections naturally in the client's language.

02

Improving written English for a multilingual engineering team communicating with English-speaking clients

Engineering leads and developers who write client-facing documentation, pull request descriptions, or incident reports in English as a second language can take Preply lessons focused on professional written communication. The team's written output becomes clearer and more professional without a native-speaker editing pass.

03

Onboarding international hires to communicate effectively in the company's working language

HR teams onboarding employees who join from non-English-speaking backgrounds can use Preply Business to provide structured English lessons during the first 90 days of employment. This accelerates the time it takes for a new hire to participate fully in team meetings and async written communication.
