Duas from the Quran for Older Learners
Duas from the Quran for older learners, taught one to one in 30-minute lessons, 1–3 lessons a week. The supplications the prophets made, in their own words.
Lesson length and why
Thirty minutes at a deliberate pace. Repetition is increased and new material introduced more gradually, which suits retention rather than accommodating any deficiency.
Where most students start
Often learned as a child decades ago and retained fragments. Eyesight and screen size are practical considerations more often than learning ability.
What is expected at home
None.
How long it takes
Duas from the Quran typically runs 10–24 weeks at 1–3 lessons a week. The range is wide because it moves with revision between lessons more than with anything that happens in them.
