For Learners
Is signing up for Sheerpa free of charge?
No, creating an Apprenti account is completely free! You can sign up, browse our tutors’ profiles and buy individual lessons to suit your budget and preferences.
2. What is the Premium Package at €9.99 / month?
The Premium Package is our all-inclusive offer. For €9.99 per month, you unlock:
- Unlimited access to «Recreations» (our group video chat lounges).
- The possibility of creating up to 3 child sub-accounts.
- Access to group classes and «Playtime» sessions specifically designed for children. This is the ideal offer for regular practice and family learning!
3. What exactly are "Récréations"?
The «Récréations» are a Sheerpa exclusive! These are video-conference lounges hosted by our tutors, where several students meet to discuss in the language they are studying. There are no formal lessons here: we chat, laugh, and debate in a relaxed environment to practise the language 'in real-life conditions'.
4. How do child sub-accounts work?
With a Premium subscription, you can create up to 3 secure profiles for your children from your dashboard. This will give them their own space to join age-appropriate classes and participate in «Kids» Playtimes" with other young people.
For Tutors
5. How to become a Tutor on Sheerpa?
It's very simple! Sign up as a Tutor and subscribe to our monthly subscription of €19.99. This subscription gives you access to all our professional tools to create your courses (1-to-1, groups, children), run Recreation sessions and manage your students.
6. How am I paid for my lessons?
You are completely independent: you set the price of your lessons! Your students’ payments are processed securely via our partner Card. Your winnings are then transferred directly and securely to your bank account.
7. Do I need a degree to teach?
Not necessarily. We accept certified teachers, but also passionate native speakers who have a knack for teaching and a desire to share their culture. Authenticity and kindness are our main criteria!
