Like To Speak English needed a website where students could browse available lessons and book sessions directly online, with a simple system for the tutor to manage bookings.
The Challenge
Managing lesson bookings manually was creating friction for both students and the tutor. Students had no easy way to find availability and book, and the tutor was spending time on administrative tasks that should have been handled automatically.
Student booking experience
Students had no straightforward way to view available sessions and book lessons directly, creating unnecessary friction.
Administrative overhead
Managing bookings, availability and payments manually was time-consuming and prone to errors.
The Transformation
How we upgraded their business.
The Starting Point
- No online lesson booking capability
- Bookings managed manually
- No integrated payment collection
- Administrative overhead limiting capacity
What We Built
- Custom PHP Booking System
A bespoke platform allowing students to browse lesson availability and book sessions online.
- Payment Integration
Online payment collection at the point of booking, removing manual invoicing.
- Tutor Admin Backend
A management interface for the tutor to control availability, view bookings and manage students.
Our Solution
We built a custom PHP booking platform where students can view lesson availability and book and pay for sessions directly online. The tutor manages everything through a dedicated backend, removing the manual overhead from the booking process entirely.
