1. Project Goal

Create a platform where:

• The student independently goes through part of the lesson (exercises, audio, tests, automatic checking).

• The teacher conducts 10 minutes of live lesson in the built-in Zoom directly on the site (speaking + explanations).

• The teacher sees all the student's answers.

• Students can book lessons after payment.

• Lessons can be created once and used for many students.

2. Main Modules of the Platform

2.1. Lesson Module (Course / Lesson Builder)

Must include:

• Creation of lessons from blocks:

  • text,

  • audio,

  • video,

  • exercises (multiple choice ABCD, word input, fill in the blanks, word movement, matching, etc.),

  • voice recording tasks (optional).

• Automatic checking of all tasks.

• Explanation of mistakes in text or short video (minimum).

• Ability to add your own PDFs/images/audio through the panel.

• Lessons are grouped into levels (A1, A2, B1) and topics.

Important:

• A lesson is created once → used multiple times for different students.

• The teacher should not manually enter tasks each time.

2.2. Student Personal Cabinet Module

The student sees:

• their courses,

• which lessons they have already completed,

• which are open,

• results for each lesson,

• mistakes,

• number of paid lessons,

• calendar with available slots,

• upcoming bookings.

2.3. Teacher Module

The teacher sees:

• list of students,

• students' answers for each lesson,

• their mistakes,

• progress,

• payment,

• upcoming bookings,

• calendar with their schedule.

The teacher can:

• create lessons,

• edit lessons,

• add audio/video,

• configure task types,

• create available time slots for booking.

2.4. Class Booking System

Should work like this:

1. The teacher creates available slots (e.g., Mon 15:00–17:00, Tue 10:00–12:00).

2. The student after purchasing a lesson sees available times.

3. The student books a specific time.

4. Automatically sent:

   • email to the student with confirmation,

   • email to the teacher with details.

5. In the personal cabinet:

   • the student sees the date and time of their class,

   • the teacher sees all bookings.

2.5. Payment Module

• Online payment (wayfoePay - to be discussed).

• After successful payment:

  • “lessons” are credited to the student's account,

  • booking capability is opened.

• Receipt (email).

3. Technology Requirements

Possible options:

1. WordPress + custom plugin
   Advantages: easy to change content, many ready components.
   Disadvantages: may be slower and less scalable.

2. Laravel + Vue/React
   Advantages: speed, stability, scalability.
   Disadvantages: more expensive, harder to edit without a programmer.

3. Another CMS, if the programmer proves that it:

   • is fast,

   • is secure,

   • allows easy lesson creation,

   • allows scalability.

4. Speed and Optimization Requirements

• The site must load quickly even with a large number of lessons.

• Page and media file caching.

• Responsive design for phone/tablet/computer.

5. Design

• Simple, clean, without unnecessary images - as in the screenshots.

• Easy to use on a phone.

• Display progress in the form of “badges” or metrics.

6. Security

• Protection of students' personal data.

• Access restrictions: a student cannot see another student.

• Backup of lessons and data.

7. Admin Panel

The admin has:

• the ability to create and edit lessons at each level,

• collect statistics,

• see payments,

• disable or delete lessons,

• change access.

8. Implementation Timeline

Reasonable - 1–5 weeks, depending on the platform.

9. What I Expect from the Programmer

The programmer should:

• propose an architecture,

• describe how the Lesson Builder will work,

• show a demo or examples of previous work,

• provide an exact price and timeline,

• give a guarantee and support.

TECHNICAL TASK (TT)

for the development of a platform for online English language learning

1. General project description
