Preply Tutor Scraper

Preply Tutor Scraper: tutor profiles, prices, ratings, languages and availability by subject

Preply Tutor Scraper turns a Preply tutor search into a spreadsheet with one row per tutor. It is for language-learning companies, market researchers, tutors pricing their own lessons, and anyone comparing the online tutoring market. Each row has the hourly price, rating, review count, lessons taught, languages and levels, country, short bio, super tutor and professional flags, and the next available time slots.

• Pricing and demand data. priceValue, currencyCode, pricePerHourUsd, averageScore, numberReviews, totalLessons, activeStudentsCount and lessonsBookedLast48h show what tutors charge and how busy they are.
• Search the way Preply does. Filter by subject, city (or online), sort order, free-text search and price range.
• Flattened fields next to the raw ones. Fields such as tutorName, languages, countryName, isOnline and subjectAliases are added so you don't have to dig into nested objects.
• Availability. nearestAvailableTimeslots lists the next open lesson slots.
• Pay per tutor, no subscription. No Preply account is needed. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets. Preply may block anonymous requests, so you can optionally supply a cookie string (see the FAQ).

Scope: This actor lists tutors from a Preply search. It does not read reviews text or book lessons. For other freelancer marketplaces, see Upwork Scraper.

Track Preply over time with scheduled runs

Most of the value comes from running the same input again and comparing. Apify can run the actor for you on a schedule and send the results wherever you need them.

1. Save your input as a task

Open the actor, set your subject, filters and limits, then click Save as a new task. A task is a saved input you can run again with one click or on a schedule.

2. Schedule the task

In Apify Console, go to Schedules, click Create new, choose how often to run (for example daily at 06:00 in your time zone), and add your task. See Schedules and How to create a schedule.

FAQ

How many tutors can I get?

totalResults for a search can be tens of thousands. Each page has 20 tutors. Raise maxPages or set it to 0, and use maxTutors to cap the run.

Do I need cookies or a proxy?

Preply sits behind Cloudflare and may reject anonymous requests. If a run fails with an HTTP error, copy the Cookie header from your browser's developer tools (Network tab, a request to preply.com) into cookies. Proxies are optional.

Why did the run stop early?

The actor stops at the last page, at your limits, or when a page request fails (the error is in the log). Rows already saved are kept.

Is there an official API?

Preply has no public tutor-search API. This actor uses the same JSON API as Preply's mobile app.

Is it legal?

The actor collects public tutor profile data. Tutor names and photos are personal data, so check GDPR and similar rules for your use, and Preply's Terms of Service.

Cost

Pay per event: a tiny start fee per run plus a price per tutor. Per tutor it is $0.003 on the Free plan and $0.002 on paid plans, so 1,000 tutors cost about $3 on Free or $2 on paid plans. See the Pricing tab for current prices.
