Live Tutoring Marketplace App for Online Classes
A live learning marketplace app that connects students with verified expert tutors for interactive 1-on-1 and group classes.
The Challenge
Online learning is crowded with pre-recorded video courses, but many people want something more personal: a real teacher, answering questions in real time. Finding a trustworthy tutor for a skill like coding, music or a school subject is hard, and so is fitting the classes into a busy schedule. Tutors face the other side of the problem. They need a simple way to publish classes, reach students, take payments and get paid.
The client wanted one mobile marketplace where learners and expert tutors meet for live, interactive classes, with trust, scheduling and payments handled inside the app. For a product like this, many businesses weigh custom mobile app development against ready-made apps before they build.
Key challenges included:
• Building a two-sided marketplace with a separate, purpose-built experience for learners and tutors
• Delivering live, interactive classes on a phone, in 1-on-1 and group formats
• Helping learners trust the tutors they book, through verified tutors, ratings and reviews
• Handling scheduling, reminders and class tracking so nobody misses a session
• Making payments transparent and refunds fair, tied to class attendance
• Giving tutors a wallet and earnings tracking, so getting paid is simple and secure
• Recognising learner effort with progress tracking and verifiable completion certificates
Our Solution
AaiNova designed and developed a live learning marketplace app for Android. Instead of pre-recorded lectures, learners join real-time classes with expert tutors, while tutors get the tools to publish classes, track sessions and earn from one app. Learners and tutors each get a workspace shaped around what they need. This is the kind of end-to-end product build our application development and maintenance services are made for.
1. Two Experiences, One App
Learners land on a dashboard showing today's classes, upcoming sessions and categories to explore. Tutors see their own home screen with today's classes, today's earnings and the overall progress of each course they teach.
2. Easy Class Discovery
Learners can search for classes and browse by category, with featured categories highlighted. Each class page gives the full picture before booking: price, duration, skill level (such as Beginner), language, class size, whether it is a group or 1-on-1 session, a course description, what you will learn, and ratings and reviews from other learners.
3. Live 1-on-1 and Group Classes
Classes run live inside the app, so learners join from their phone and talk to the tutor in real time. Tutors can run personalised 1-on-1 coaching or group batches, and organise them as single or multi-session courses. Classes are tracked under Today, Upcoming, Sessions and Completed tabs, and push notifications keep both sides on schedule.
4. Verified Tutors & Authentic Reviews
Trust is built into the marketplace. Tutors go through verified onboarding, and classes are approved before they go live. Learners can rate and review the classes they have taken, so the ratings on each class and tutor profile come from real participants.
5. Transparent Payments & Fair Refunds
What learners see is what they pay, with secure online payments inside the app. A refund policy backed by class attendance tracking keeps things fair for both learners and tutors.
6. Tutor Wallet & Earnings Dashboard
Tutors get a wallet to track settled earnings and pending payouts, and they can withdraw money to a verified bank account. A daily earnings view on the home screen shows how their classes are performing at a glance.
7. Progress Tracking & Verifiable Certificates
Learners and tutors can follow each course's progress as a percentage. When a course is completed, learners receive a Certificate of Completion with a unique certificate number and verification code. The certificate can be viewed in the app, downloaded as a print-quality PDF and shared.
The Results
The app is live on Google Play, with an iOS version in progress. It gives learners and tutors one place to find each other, hold live classes and handle payments.
Key outcomes include:
• One marketplace that brings tutor discovery, booking, payments and live classes into a single app
• Separate, purpose-built experiences for learners and tutors
• Live 1-on-1 and group classes that learners can join from their phone
• More trust through verified tutors, approved classes and authentic ratings and reviews
• Transparent pricing and a refund policy tied to class attendance
• A tutor wallet, earnings dashboard and payouts to a verified bank account
• Progress tracking and verifiable completion certificates that learners can download and share
• A phased launch, with the first categories live and more, including yoga, meditation, painting and tailoring, lined up for rollout
• A scalable foundation, with more categories on the way and an iOS version in progress
By combining live classes, verified tutors, payments, reviews and certificates in one app, the platform makes online learning more personal for learners and more rewarding for tutors. To see another of our education builds, read our gamified learning application for kids case study.
