LinguaConnect

Objective:
To design and develop an interactive online platform that connects language learners with
teachers for personalized online lessons by offering a platform where learners can choose a
tutor based on their target language, fluency, budget and schedule.

Features:
→ A user must be able to register themselves as a tutor (for a set of languages) or a student.

For students:
→ Implement a tutor search feature where students can filter by language, experience and
pricing.
→Add a scheduling feature where students can choose to learn from available time slots for a
given tutor. Also add the option to choose from various lesson lengths such as 45, 60 or 90
minute sessions.
→ Implement a section where a student can store flashcards for a particular language. Design
options to add and remove flashcards and review them whenever needed.

For tutors:
→Tutors should be able to set up classes based on their availability. Classes will be set
according to time slots.
→ Tutors should be able to set their own pricing. Add the option to charge different prices based
on the level of teaching.

General:
→Design a one to one video call feature through which the classes will be conducted. The tutor
and the student should be able to share their screens to discuss and share ideas.
→Implement a subscription based payment model. For a student, this should be the final part
when selecting a tutor.

Brownie Points:
→Implement a feature that’ll allow tutors to broadcast a live session to multiple students. The
scheduling of such a session will be decided by the tutor. Students must receive appropriate
notifications regarding such a session.
→Implement a feature that’ll allow tutors to assess students by arranging personalized tests for
each student. Upon completion, the tutor should be able to send appropriate feedback for each
question to the student. Additionally add a section where a student can review past tests.
Test Formatter

Idea: A site where students can upload pdf of question papers of exams such as
JEE and get an online mock for the same question paper. It can also be used by
different institutes to conduct online assessments.

Resource: Tool to perform Optical Character Recognition(OCR) with API

Features:

1. Test Generator: Users can upload a PDF/Image and get an online mock
assessment(text only) of the same with an option to upload an image for
each question.
2. Answer Key: The user can upload the PDF/Image of the answer key along
with the question paper and get their attempt corrected automatically.
3. Timer: Add a timer so that the user can track the remaining time while
attempting the mock.
4. Tool: Users can directly make a manual online assessment(text and
image) without needing a PDF.
5. Social Space: Users can make their test public and different users can
attempt and discuss it.
6. Test Review: Create an interface to review and finalize the test before
making it public.
7. Analytical Side: Analysis of the attempt with different fields of information
such as time spent on a question and on a subject(Physics, Chemistry,
Maths), Time wasted on a question, total score, negatives, comparison
with peers, etc

Brownie Points:

1. Image Extraction: Automatic image extraction from the pdf and correct
alignment with the associated question.
2. Personal Space: Users can add friends and form groups with them.
3. Wider support: Support for different formats not limited to just JEE exam.
4. Ratings: Allow people to upvote a public test to distinguish between the
good and bad tests uploaded.
