Building a Scalable Education Platform: The LIQ Story

LIQ Tutors was founded with a simple but ambitious mission: to make quality education accessible to every Ethiopian student.

The Beginning

LIQ started as a small tutoring matching service in Addis Ababa, connecting students with verified home tutors through a simple Telegram bot.

Growing the Platform

As demand grew, LIQ expanded to include a full web platform, parent and tutor dashboards, automated session scheduling, and payment processing.

The Technology Stack

LIQ is built on modern technology including Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Telegram Bot API — all optimized for the Ethiopian market.

Vetting Our Tutors

Every tutor on LIQ undergoes academic screening, identity verification, and a practical teaching evaluation before being accepted.

What is Next

LIQ is expanding beyond Addis Ababa to serve students in Adama, Hawassa, Bishoftu, and eventually all major cities in Ethiopia.
