Preply has to many new tutors?

When I first signed up as a tutor for my language, I was one of the cheapest ones and I already had a good price for myself. But when I checked, because I was curios, how much others charge. I saw a big wave of new people charging just 3-10$. My language is not English or Spanish so charging that means not living. Most of them are not fluent or atleast have it as a native language.

I’m curious why we all are put in the same statistics when I for example speak two other languages fluently I can teach that language in, while others just studied this language in school/uni + don’t have education background.

Is there like a new wave of tutors (I’m also part of the new wave but not in this extreme case)

I’m now in 300 position, just because I maybe charge to much. But I don’t even earn anything with the commission.
There should be different ranges based on fluency and educational background.

But to not sound negative. I’m happy with the Plattform and the students I have right now. It’s a nice job next to university ❤️

Hey, so I want to promote myself more trough LinkedIn, just to have some other sources of free lance work beside Preply.
There is the option to have a button/pin under your name “tutor with Preply” I’m curious if Preply counts it as trying to contact students off Plattform and could penalize.
I personally think they’re two different platforms but I’m still curious because some people write on here option Preply being really harsh

I hope my question makes sense
