On <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/cmp\/Prepclass\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Indeed, Prepclass has a 4.0 out of 5 rating (based on 2 employee reviews)<\/a>. One tutor there said he loves teaching and wrote that the &#8220;most enjoyable part is meeting new people and imparting knowledge to them&#8221;. Prepclass&#8217;s own website also features praise: for example, a client said Prepclass made &#8220;the process of hiring a home tutor easy and straightforward&#8221;.\n\nWe did not find any official Trustpilot or SiteJabber page for Prepclass, so public reviews seem limited. Overall, the feedback we found is positive. Prepclass appears to be a legitimate service, with satisfied users in its community. There is no evidence of scams. The main drawback is the lack of many independent ratings outside its own site, so broad public sentiment is unclear.\n\n<h2>Pricing<\/h2>\n\nPricing is where most readers slow down, because Prepclass mixes package examples, registration fees, and payout details.\n\n<div id=\"attachment_10086\" style=\"width: 1210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10086\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-10086\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02.webp\" alt=\"Pricing infographic showing Prepclass class costs, registration fee, upfront payment model, tutor share, commission, and refund limits.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"671\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27671%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201200%20671%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27671%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-300x168.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-400x224.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-600x336.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-768x429.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-800x447.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02-1024x573.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-payment-diagram-02.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10086\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This Prepclass pricing visual shows the class examples, upfront fee structure, and how payment flows between student, platform, and tutor.<\/p><\/div>\n\nThe main takeaway is simple: students pay upfront, while refund language remains limited and rescheduling is emphasized.\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-3129\" src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing.webp\" alt=\"Prepclass pricing overview\" width=\"1200\" height=\"653\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27653%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201200%20653%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27653%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-200x109.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-300x163.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-400x218.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-600x327.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-768x418.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-800x435.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing-1024x557.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-pricing.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Packages &amp; rates:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclasses.org\/page\/new%20registrations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prepclass lists its prices in Nigerian Naira (\u20a6).<\/a> For example, its basic online math-and-English group class costs \u20a612,000 per student (this includes lesson notes). A more comprehensive class (adding science) is \u20a630,000 per student. Custom one-on-one tutoring rates are calculated individually via an online calculator on the site.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Currency &amp; fees:<\/strong> All prices are in Naira. There is a one-time registration fee of \u20a63,000 that students pay up front. No free trial is advertised on the site.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Payment model:<\/strong> Students pay Prepclass in advance. Prepclass then pays tutors after lessons are completed. Tutors keep the bulk of each class fee (usually 70\u201385%). Prepclass takes the remaining 15\u201330% as commission.<\/li>\n<li><strong>User sentiment:<\/strong> We found no independent reviews talking about Prepclass prices or deals. The company does not publicly list discount codes or subscriptions. It seems pricing is fixed per lesson or package.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Refunds:<\/strong> The published terms say if a lesson is cancelled, parents must reschedule it. There is no clear refund policy on the site, so paid fees appear non-refundable (only rescheduling is mentioned).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2>Alternatives to Prepclass<\/h2>\n\n<h3>Wyzant<\/h3>\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-975\" src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant.webp\" alt=\"Wyzant tutoring platform\" width=\"1200\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27503%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201200%20503%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27503%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-200x84.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-300x126.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-400x168.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-600x252.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-768x322.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-800x335.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant-1024x429.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Wyzant.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pros:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wyzant.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wyzant<\/a> is a large US-based tutor marketplace with thousands of tutors.

This is required for payment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Get paid:<\/strong> Prepclass pays tutors after reviewing the submitted class log. Tutors keep 70\u201385% of the fee (Prepclass keeps 15\u201330%). One tutor said Prepclass&#8217;s payment process was &#8220;easy&#8221; and structured.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Student demand:<\/strong> Prepclass advertises a large base of potential clients: it claims &#8220;over 500,000 parents \u2026 willing to pay&#8221; for quality tutors. This suggests there is high demand, so approved tutors can get students through the platform.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nThose curious about how online tutoring platforms operate more broadly may find this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/online-tutoring-complete-guide\/\">complete guide to online tutoring<\/a> a useful reference.\n\n<h2>Company Information<\/h2>\n\n<strong>Founding and Mission:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/pitchbook.com\/profiles\/company\/61632-73\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prepclass was founded in 2014 by Obanor Chukwuwezam.<\/a> Its mission is to make education accessible by breaking the formal-education norm. It connects learners of all ages with skilled tutors for any subject.\n\n<strong>Services and Subjects:<\/strong> Prepclass offers both home tutoring and online classes. It covers virtually any <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/browse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">academic subject<\/a>. For example, it handles major exam prep (SAT, GMAT, GRE, IELTS, TOEFL, etc.), school subjects (math, science, languages) and even hobbies (music, coding, languages). They also run an educational app (Prep-Test App) with study materials and local content. The company operates learning centers for test prep as well.\n\n<strong>Scale and Reach:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prepclass claims over 50,000 registered tutors<\/a> on its platform and has served about 30,000 students (200,000 hours of lessons) since launch. According to an investor profile, it grew from a two-person startup to around 60 full-time staff. The service is primarily centered in its home country, but students from other countries can sign up online.\n\n<strong>Unique Features and Drawbacks:<\/strong> Prepclass&#8217;s key strengths are its large vetted tutor network and flexible class options (online or in-person). It even offers group classes, which many tutoring sites do not. <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/terms-and-condition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">All tutors are tested and background-checked.<\/a> However, as a regional provider it has limited global brand recognition and few independent reviews. The site does not highlight any AI or automated learning tools; its tech offerings are mainly the Prep-Test app and online scheduling. We found no information on future AI plans.\n\nCredibility matters in any tutoring review, so the next visual gathers the strongest trust and scale signals into one place.\n\n<div id=\"attachment_10090\" style=\"width: 1210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10090\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-10090\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06.webp\" alt=\"Company snapshot infographic showing Prepclass founding year, tutor network, student count, lesson hours, support channels, and trust signals.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"676\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27676%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201200%20676%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27676%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-200x113.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-800x451.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06-1024x577.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-company-trust-data-chart-06.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10090\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This Prepclass company snapshot highlights the platform&#8217;s scale, support channels, and the trust signals readers should weigh carefully.<\/p><\/div>\n\nThis helps readers separate what Prepclass clearly states from what still lacks broad third-party review depth.\n\nStudents studying quantitative social sciences may also want to explore options for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/subject\/econometrics\/\">econometrics tutor<\/a> when comparing specialist platforms.\n\n<strong>Customer Support:<\/strong> The website <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/contact-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">provides phone numbers, email and WhatsApp contact for support<\/a>. Prepclass says it can teach different curricula (British, American, etc.). Unlike global companies like My Engineering Buddy (which explicitly serves US\/UK\/Gulf students), Prepclass stays focused on its regional base (albeit available online).\n\nReaders comparing regional platforms with global alternatives may also find this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/vedantu-reviews-alternatives-pricing-offerings\/\">Vedantu review<\/a> useful for context.

MEB&#8217;s high rating (4.7\/5) reflects its niche focus, while Prepclass covers general curriculum needs.\n\n<h3>How much do Prepclass tutors earn?<\/h3>\n\nTutors keep most of the lesson fee. New tutors start by keeping 70% of each class payment, and <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/terms-and-condition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prepclass takes 30% commission<\/a>. As tutors gain experience, their share can rise to 80\u201385%. After each lesson, tutors submit the lesson summary and get paid promptly. (An older report mentioned tutors earning around $6\/hour.) Overall, Prepclass claims tutors can earn as much as a good teaching salary by sharing their knowledge.\n\n<h3>How do tutors find students on Prepclass?<\/h3>\n\nPrepclass acts as the matchmaker. Approved tutors are connected with students automatically. Tutors don&#8217;t need to market themselves; Prepclass provides the leads. In fact, Prepclass advertises a large pool of students (it says 500,000 parents are seeking tutors). Once a tutor is approved, they simply wait for class assignments or can browse student requests on the platform. Good performance and reviews can lead to repeat referrals.\n\n<h3>What is the Prepclass refund or cancellation policy?<\/h3>\n\nPrepclass&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/terms-and-condition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">terms<\/a> state that if a lesson is cancelled, the client must inform Prepclass and agree on a new date. The site does not mention giving money back. In practice, this implies no refunds are given for missed classes, only rescheduling. Parents and tutors should clarify any refund questions with Prepclass support before paying.\n\n<h3>Does Prepclass offer a free trial or discounts?<\/h3>\n\nNo free trial is mentioned on Prepclass&#8217;s site. <a href=\"https:\/\/prepclass.com.ng\/tutor-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Classes require payment up front (plus the registration fee) before booking<\/a>. We also found no reference to public coupons or promo codes. Prepclass&#8217;s pricing seems fixed per its class packages. If any discounts exist, they would likely be private or seasonal and are not advertised.\n\n<h3>Is Prepclass legitimate or a scam?<\/h3>\n\nYes, Prepclass is legitimate. It is a <a href=\"https:\/\/tracxn.com\/d\/companies\/prepclass\/__WY_DYKqC1k_IJXYCHHTF_juDsCvjnvJQpXU6YIsuEMg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">registered education company (started in 2014)<\/a> that has helped many students. We saw positive feedback from clients and tutors. There are no scam warnings in our research. Based on the available information, Prepclass is a real tutoring service, not a fraud.\n\n<h3>How do I cancel or reschedule a Prepclass lesson?<\/h3>\n\nTo cancel or change a Prepclass lesson, you should contact Prepclass as soon as possible. The terms say you should inform them to agree on an alternate date. There do not appear to be penalties stated for rescheduling. However, since payments are made in advance, make sure to coordinate with Prepclass and your tutor to avoid losing a paid lesson.\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-3134\" src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2.webp\" alt=\"Prepclass tutoring platform overview\" width=\"1200\" height=\"959\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27959%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201200%20959%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271200%27%20height%3D%27959%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-200x160.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-300x240.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-400x320.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-600x480.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-768x614.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-800x639.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2-1024x818.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/prepclass-2.webp 1200w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>\n\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n\nPrepclass is an established tutoring marketplace with a wide range of offerings. It allows students to find both online and at-home tutors for many subjects. User feedback is generally positive, with satisfied tutors and parents praising its ease of use.\n\nIts pricing is per-class in local currency, and it lacks broad reviews or transparent refund policies. Alternatives like Wyzant or Chegg serve different needs (Wyzant for US in-person tutoring, Chegg for homework help), while TutorBin and Course Hero focus on homework\/Q&amp;A. Compared to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/\">MyEngineeringBuddy&#8217;s<\/a> STEM focus, Prepclass is more general and regionally based.\n\nIn summary, Prepclass appears to be a legit tutoring service in 2025, with many tutors and satisfied clients, but interested users should compare it with other options based on their subject needs and location. Students who need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/subject\/geology\/\">geology tutor<\/a> or support in a language such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/subject\/gujarati\/\">Gujarati<\/a> may find that specialist platforms better match their requirements.\n\n<h2>Related Reading<\/h2>\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/varsity-tutors-reviews-alternatives-pricing-offerings\/\">Varsity Tutors: Reviews, Alternatives, Pricing and Offerings<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myengineeringbuddy.com\/blog\/is-wyzant-tutoring-legit-a-detailed-review-and-alternatives\/\">Is Wyzant Tutoring Legit?
