polar aprotic mei metal part is dissoluted by the lone pair...for example ethers...or THF...so the nuclephile is fully free to attack!!

while polar protic mei there is H bonding!!

polar protic-h2o,R-Oh,Ch3COOH
polar aprotic-acetone,DMSO,DMF
polar protic solvent stabilizes carbocation,nucleophile and and leaving group,so it favours SN1
