The project
The Academian is an online learning platform that connects students with qualified tutors. Learners choose one-to-one tutoring, group classes or self-paced courses, and AI shapes an adaptive learning path around each student's strengths and the areas they need to work on. The platform covers the whole cycle: onboarding, tutor discovery, scheduling, live classes, assessments, progress tracking and personalized recommendations. Students, tutors and administrators each get a dashboard with course management, scheduling and performance analytics. We built it on the MERN stack with React, Node.js and MongoDB.
The challenge
- Students struggled to find a qualified tutor who fit their level and schedule.
- One-size-fits-all courses did not adapt to what each learner already knew.
- Tutors and parents had little visibility of a student's progress between lessons.
What we built
- Tutor discovery with one-to-one, group and self-paced options.
- AI-driven adaptive learning paths and recommendations.
- Scheduling, live classes and assessments in one place.
- Dashboards for students, tutors and administrators with progress and performance analytics.
