Why PolyTripper

Why Choose PolyTripper Over Other Sites or Methods?

We treat our teachers better.

We only take a 5% commission from our teachers — far less than the 15% (or more) that many competitors charge. And we never ask our teachers to give their first lesson for free, like some platforms do.

We carefully screen our professional teachers.

Other sites just check paper certificates. We personally interview all our professional teachers to ensure they know their grammar and can give structured lessons. (We don’t interview informal tutors, but we still review their profiles carefully.)

We listen to and care about your feedback.

Some platforms roll out changes without warning, removing features or redesigning interfaces with no input from their users. We take the opposite approach — we listen, we ask, and we care.

Online instruction gives you an essential feedback loop which is impossible with self-study.

Think of it like learning a musical instrument: trying to learn the piano alone means you’ll likely reinforce mistakes, lose motivation, and miss the guidance a teacher brings. The same is true for language. Live feedback from a real person makes all the difference — and it can be a lot of fun, too.

We have active Facebook Groups where you can practice your languages.

Practice your languages in our Facebook groups: Learn Spanish, Learn French, Learn Portuguese, Learn Dutch and Learn Languages with quality content where you can get daily exposure to the language you're learning.

The cofounders are polyglots and are learning too, together with you.

We (Wanda and Mohan, the cofounders) built this site and community from the ground up because we love languages too. We're language learners ourselves — we share your challenges, celebrate your wins, and care deeply about making this the best, most enjoyable place to learn.
