Our verdict on each
GoStudent
GoStudent suits families who want 1to1 and group online lessons with a large screened tutor pool of 23,000 and a trial lesson listed as free. Lessons start at £22.71 and the GoStudent subscription is £14.90, so the entry cost is modest, while 1 hours cancellation notice is the detail to read first.
Moonpreneur
Moonpreneur suits families wanting live group tutoring in math, English and coding on one monthly plan, with a free trial lesson to test it first. The per lesson entry of $8.50 and the subscription of $99 make it easy to start, though a family that needs one to one teaching will look elsewhere.

Pros and cons
GoStudent
Pros
- Tutor choice is the strongest point: a pool of 23,000, where the comparable tutor count median is 3,900.
- The trial lesson is free, so a family can size up a tutor before any recurring spend.
- Lessons come in 1to1 and group formats, so a child can move to group work without changing platform.
Cons
- Cancellations need 1 hours' notice, which is short for a family booking a block of lessons across a term.
- A single GoStudent lesson starts at £22.71, where the comparable starting price median is €44.31, so occasional sessions sit above a typical entry point.
- The starting lesson price of £22.71 puts GoStudent at 18 of 32 brands compared, a mid-field entry cost.
Moonpreneur
Pros
- Lessons start at $8.50, among the lowest on the site, against a site lesson price median of €44.31.
- The trial lesson is free, so a family can test the format before paying $99.
- Lessons run in groups, which suits families happy to share a session rather than buy one to one teaching.
Cons
- The subscription of $99 sits above the site price year median of €145.48, and it renews as a recurring charge.
- Lessons are group only on group, so anyone wanting one to one teaching pays elsewhere.
- There is no free tier, so a family that stops mid month has no free option to fall back on.
Who each suits
GoStudent
Who it suits
- Families with a child in secondary school who want online lessons across math, english and science in 1to1 and group formats.
- Parents who want to test the platform before paying, since the trial lesson is free.
- Learners in GoStudent's markets, GB, DE and AT, who want a large pool of screened tutors to pick from.
Who should look elsewhere
- DojoTutor, which lists a lesson from $10, for a reader who wants a second currency listing on the starting price before choosing.
- BUKI, listed from PLN 50, for families in Poland who would rather read prices in zloty.
- ErsteNachhilfe, listed from €10.50, for a reader who wants a euro listing set against GoStudent's sterling entry price.
Moonpreneur
Who it suits
- Families with children in the age range Moonpreneur accepts who want live group lessons in math, English or coding.
- Parents in the United States, CA and GB who want one monthly plan to cover several children rather than per lesson billing.
- Households that prefer a free trial lesson before committing to $99.
Who should look elsewhere
- Learners who need one to one lessons, since Moonpreneur teaches in groups on group.
- Families wanting a language course, a science course or exam preparation beyond math, english and coding.
- Anyone who wants a single upfront price, because $99 is a recurring subscription.

Questions about each
GoStudent
How much does a GoStudent lesson cost?+
A GoStudent lesson starts at £22.71, and that is the entry price rather than an average. Families who take a block of lessons usually look at the GoStudent subscription of £14.90 instead, since the same tutor on a fixed timetable is easier to budget as a recurring charge. Both figures are listed on the GoStudent price page.
Is the GoStudent trial lesson free?+
The GoStudent trial lesson is free, so a first session carries no charge. That lets a family see whether a tutor and a child work together before any recurring arrangement starts. The trial sits alongside the GoStudent subscription, which is what a family pays for if the tutoring carries on.
Moonpreneur
What does Moonpreneur cost per month?+
Moonpreneur runs on a subscription priced at $99, with the platform type listed as subscription. That monthly figure is the recurring charge, so it continues at each renewal rather than being a one off entry fee. Individual lessons start at $8.50. A family can try the format first because the trial lesson is free.
Is there a free trial or free tier?+
The trial lesson is free, which lets a family sit in on a session before paying anything. There is no free tier, so once a subscription ends there is no free version to keep using. The service describes its commitment as Satisfaction guaranteed. Across the site, free trial lessons are the most common opening at 82.5% of brands.
