About EduMatch LB
The trust layer for Lebanese tutoring
EduMatch LB is a verified-tutor marketplace built for Lebanese families. Students and parents can compare tutors by subject, level, location, and price, then message the right fit directly — no agencies, no booking fees, no opaque pricing.
Lebanon's private tutoring market is large but informal, running mostly on WhatsApp forwards and personal referrals. That model rewards who you know, not how good a tutor actually is. EduMatch LB replaces it with a public directory where every profile is reviewed and verified before going live, and where ratings, experience, and rates are visible upfront.
The platform supports school subjects, Brevet and BAC preparation, university-level help, languages, exam prep, and activities across 25+ Lebanese cities. It is free for families to use and free for tutors to join.

Talking points
What makes EduMatch LB different
Trust over volume
EduMatch LB verifies every tutor profile manually before it goes live. Families browse a curated marketplace rather than an open directory.
Built for Lebanon
The platform supports school programs, Brevet and BAC preparation, university tutoring, languages, and activities — covering 25+ Lebanese cities.
Direct, no middleman
Families and tutors message each other directly. EduMatch LB takes no per-session cut from tutors and charges no booking fees to students.
Founder
Paul Mekary
Founder & CEO, EduMatch LB
Paul Mekary founded EduMatch LB to solve the tutor-trust problem that every Lebanese parent recognizes: tutoring is booked through informal forwards, and there is no shared directory where families can compare verified profiles, prices, and reviews before committing.
Available for interviews on Lebanese EdTech, tutoring economics, Brevet and BAC preparation trends, and the role of verification in marketplace trust.
“Tutoring in Lebanon shouldn't depend on knowing the right person. EduMatch LB exists so that any family, anywhere in the country, can find a verified tutor with the same clarity they get when they shop for anything else online.”
— Paul Mekary, Founder & CEO
