Education and Learning Booking App in Ghana
Learning centres run on timetables, but students rarely fit them neatly. A language school in Labone offers French and Chinese lessons at different levels, a music teacher in Tesano gives piano and guitar lessons after school, a driving school in Kumasi books practical lessons around instructors and cars, and a vocational centre runs short sewing or baking classes on Saturdays. When learners book by calling the office, slots get double-assigned and instructors sit idle. AyaBookings gives each centre a booking page that lists lessons and classes by subject, level and length, with the instructor attached. Learners or parents reserve through the web page, WhatsApp or USSD, and get an SMS reminder before each lesson. Fees can be paid in cash at the centre, which has no charge, or by Mobile Money online, which carries 5%. Owners and instructors see every lesson in the AyaBookings for Business app, and the platform costs nothing to use. Each lesson type carries its own length: a 45-minute children's piano lesson, a 90-minute adult French class or a one-hour practical driving lesson. Learners see only times when the instructor, and for driving schools the car, is genuinely free. Parents booking for children can keep the reminders on their own phone.
Why Ghana businesses choose AyaBookings
- Instructors each keep a timetable, so a driving instructor or music teacher is never booked for two learners at once.
- Learners pick the subject, level and time themselves, freeing your office from scheduling calls.
- SMS reminders before each lesson help keep attendance steady across a course.
- Customer records show how many lessons each learner has taken.
- Optional Mobile Money deposits confirm Saturday lesson bookings.

Built for how you work in Ghana
- Driving schools have to match an instructor and a car to each lesson, and booked lessons stop two learners being promised the same car at 7am.
- Music and language lessons tend to happen after school, in the evening or on Saturdays, exactly when the office phone goes unanswered.
- Short skills sessions in sewing, baking or hairdressing are popular, and a Mobile Money deposit helps confirm who is really coming.
- Many learners and parents still pay lesson fees in cash at the centre, and that remains free of any AyaBookings fee.

Frequently asked questions
- Which centres is this for?
- Language schools, music teachers and academies, driving schools, vocational and skills centres for sewing, baking or hairdressing, computer training centres and similar places that teach by booked lesson or class.
- Can learners choose their instructor?
- Yes. Each instructor appears with their lessons and available times. A learner who prefers a particular piano teacher or driving instructor can book that person directly every week.
- How do lesson fees work?
- The centre pays nothing to use AyaBookings. Fees paid in cash at the centre carry no charge. When a learner pays through Mobile Money on the booking page, 5% of the payment is deducted.
- Can I ask for a deposit before a lesson?
- Yes. For Saturday lessons and skills sessions, switch on a Mobile Money deposit so your instructor's time goes to learners who commit. A parent can also make one booking for several children.
- Can learners book by USSD?
- Yes. A learner or parent without data can key your USSD code into any handset to book a lesson.
- Will learners be reminded?
- Yes. SMS reminders are sent before each booked lesson, which helps learners keep up over a full course.
