Project Overview:

Client: Denis P.

Industry: e-Learning / Educational Technology

Project Launch: 2024 April

Location: Italy

Referred by a previous satisfied client, Denis P. approached me for a comprehensive e-tutoring platform that combines educational tools with advanced technology. My task was to create a secure and intuitive system to facilitate effective learning and teaching interactions.

To develop a secure, feature-rich e-tutoring platform that simplifies the educational process through advanced technology integration, enabling interactive sessions and resource sharing.

1- Real-time Communication and Scheduling Functionalities: Developing a seamless integration with Google Calendar to ensure any changes made by tutors on their mobile devices or within the platform are synchronized immediately.

2- Robust Security for Data Exchanges: Implementing high-security measures for real-time chat, multimedia resource sharing, and payment processes.

3- User-Friendly Interface Design: Creating a complex yet intuitive user interface that accommodates extensive functionalities without overwhelming the users.

4- Stripe Connect Integration: Configuring Stripe Connect to manage the financial transactions between students and tutors, including the distribution of earnings post-service fees, posed a significant technical challenge.

5- Bi-directional Google Calendar Integration: Ensuring a flawless two-way sync between the platform’s booking system and the tutor’s personal Google Calendar, which required handling various technical complexities to maintain accuracy and instant updates across different platforms.

I designed a minimalistic and intuitive interface that supports extensive features essential for an effective e-learning experience. The platform was developed using HTML, CSS, SCSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, jQuery, PHP, MySQL, and CodeIgniter 4, ensuring a responsive and seamless operation.

The custom CMS enables comprehensive management capabilities, including:

1- Tutor verification and profile management.

2- Dynamic uploading and management of educational content.

3- Integration of secure payment systems.

4- Extensive data protection measures to ensure user privacy and security.
