Ratings and reviews

Really tough finding teachers using the app. No way to filter out by tutors in my region. I live on the other side of the globe to Europe, and keep getting recommended teachers in European timezones. Also, despite them saying there are X hundred tutors, the list repeats after a few scrolls, so you end up seeing the same tutors over again. Lastly, there is no where to find your shortlisted tutors - what is the point of having the button if you can't use it.

the platform itself is amazing. my issue is solely with the website and app itself. it's buggy and not intuitive. I was just trying to purchase a lesson pack via PayPal and it kept accepting my card... but not actually processing the agreement. there are other times where I've tried to reschedule a lesson, confirmed that it was actually rescheduled, only to discover that it didn't go through on my teacher's end. really frustrating and it definitely makes me less inclined to use the service often

it's a good platform in general but learning a language means having conversations, and the platform now kills the lesson when the time ends, which is very frustrating. it really should be up to the teacher to end the lesson. maybe it was being abused somehow, I don't know, but it made lessons more annoying to have in the platform. before this change it was five stars.

Better, faster, smoother. We spent this week getting rid of some bugs so your italki experience is even better.
