Being part of Tutoroo has been a rewarding experience!

I am very grateful to Tutoroo for giving me the opportunity to connect with amazing students from different backgrounds. The platform has helped me find students who are genuinely motivated to learn, making every lesson enjoyable and meaningful.

What I appreciate most is how Tutoroo carefully matches tutors with students based on their learning goals and preferences. Because of this, I have been able to build strong relationships with my students and help them improve their English with confidence.

I felt safe and secure throughout the process of connecting to my tutor. The systems protect both tutor and student which is important. My experience with my tutor is that she deeply cares - the vetting process is obviously proper!

Very bad website

Very bad website
I paid in advance for the lessons and every time I choose a tutorial for my daughter the teacher doesn’t accept coz they are not well paid so I had to change several times and pick up many teachers in order to do the sessions…
And every time I complain to the person in charge and I demand to get refund coz this is their duties to provide the teachers that are listed they refuse
Very bad service!

Committed to Quality Education

We've known TUTOROO for a long time and have always found their team to be professional, responsive, and reliable. Their commitment to quality service and helping students find the right tutors has consistently stood out, making them a trusted name in the education space.

I gave 2 lessons but never got paid

I gave 2 lessons in December 2025 and my student confirmed he paid even more than 2 lessons but then he dropped my class. Tutoroo never paid me back even though I tried to contact them in the last 5 months. They kept saying they will proceed.

Im very disappointed of their service. The platform is not as transparent as they advertised their policies. I recommend the freelancer teacher won't step in such my case.

*Update 05 Jun 2026: After I posted my complain, TUTOROO made refund of 30EURO to my paypal account. However, I am really concern if they are honest to their users?

My student confirmed he paid "We have received your EUR 120 payment for the first 2 weeks of lessons at EUR 30 per 1 hour 30 minutes lesson twice a week". He dropped after the second lesson. So, if I understand correctly from the policy, I should receive 60e instead of 30e after 6 months of dispute?

Again, I DO NOT recommend this platform to all freelance teachers.

Much needed language platform which gives opportunities to people to learn another language in their own time and comfort.
Very professional approach and excellent communication with the staff.

Payment

On August 3, 2025, I made a payment to Tutoroo for two trial lessons. However, no one contacted me afterwards, and no lessons ever took place. Despite several attempts to reach out, my messages were ignored, and the payment has still not been refunded to this day.

Hi Ilona,

Thank you for your feedback. We would like to clarify that tutors Lourenço and Cecília have both responded to your inquiry and confirmed their availability for Portuguese lessons.

As per our terms, we are unable to offer a refund as long as tutors remain available for your selected language. Please note that your payment remains as a valid credit if unused, does not expire, and can also be used with another tutor or even for another language on the platform.

We encourage you to continue the discussion with Lourenço and Cecília to arrange your lessons. Alternatively, if you have any specific tutor preferences or requirements, please let us know and our team will be happy to help find a better match for you.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Stick to the guidelines (again)


Stick to the guidelines: the still continuing story …

It would be helpful to users if Trustpilot kept to its own guidelines:

[1] Two ‘reviews’ from the same country are published within a matter of days.

“Because this is an online job that will satisfy my needs and i (sic) have that passion of teaching swahili (sic) language”

“I'm experienced in the field and more equiped (sic) can deliver (sic) more than expected”

Update! It is now three reviews from the same country; the latest five-star states that the company helps you to grow physically; does Tutoroo also prevent hair loss?

[2] Neither review states anything about the company’s reliability or the service and support the company itself provides.

[3] Both reviewers are advertising themselves.

[4] Both reviewers are, therefore, awarding ‘five stars’ to themselves; I doubt whether Tutoroo will object to that because the stars would appear to reflect the quality of the company.

[5] One review has already been flagged, but no action has been taken, and so there is little point in flagging the other; you can be guaranteed that Tutoroo won’t flag them.

Those who use Trustpilot are not interested in how well ‘equiped (sic)’ an individual is, or what ‘passion’ they have; users want to know whether this company should be entrusted with money. Baseless and / or irrelevant ‘five-star’ reviews are grossly misleading and should be removed so that users have an accurate picture of the quality of this company.

[6] And – to be fair – what is the purpose of:

“i (sic) haven't used this app yet i (sic) wanna (sic) register myself as an urdu (sic) teacher”

What has that to do with the company? How can a user give a one-star review concerning an application that has yet to be used?

[7] It is ridiculous “reviews” such as this which – if not professionally addressed by Trustpilot – will open a floodgate of advertising or redundant comments.

Trustpilot states that it does not ‘fact check’ reviews. I suspect it is more than that; they do not seem to check at all, which is utterly unhelpful:

“To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, …”

It obviously doesn’t work.

PS: (update) "You’ve written a review for TUTOROO, and they’ve asked for more details to better understand your experience."
The good old "genuine experience" trick - pathetic but predictable. Tutoroo wants to know more about my "experience": obviously reading what is published on this site is beyond them. They should try reading other sites where they do not have the opportunity to abuse the flagging tools that Trustpilot provides. And maybe if they reviewed their practices, rather than continually trying to hide negative and remarkably consistent comments, their score might not be so low. Do what you like. You do not care - and neither do I.

Hi Liam,

You have submitted multiple reviews since September 2025 about TUTOROO, and please note that only one counts under Trustpilot guidelines. We have tried to help resolve and address your concerns, but we did not receive a response to the information requests we sent for each review you submitted.

In light of this, we will be able to proceed once you provide at least one piece of information to help us verify your identity and locate your records in our system so we can all move forward.

Thank you for your understanding.

Do not trust their "Teacher Protection Policy" – It's a scam

I am extremely disappointed with TUTOROO. I am a tutor (Divana) and I’ve had a student discontinue lessons after two sessions. According to their own "Teacher Protection Policy," tutors are guaranteed 50% of the fees for the first two weeks if a student quits.

However, getting this compensation is impossible. I have reached out multiple times through their platform and email, but I was ignored. I even tried contacting them on Facebook; they promised a response within 48 hours, but it has been much longer and still—silence.

TUTOROO collects the full payment from the student upfront but refuses to honor their obligation to the teachers. Seeing other reviews here, I realize I am not the only one facing this issue. They exploit tutors' time and effort without any accountability.

Avoid this platform if you value your time and work. They promise protection but deliver zero support.
