Noorani Qaida (Complete) for Sisters
Noorani Qaida (Complete) for sisters, taught one to one in 45-minute lessons, 1–3 lessons a week. The full Qaida from the first letter to joined reading, at the pace the student needs.
Lesson length and why
Lessons run to the same length as any adult class. What differs is the arrangement, not the content or the standard.
Where most students start
As varied as any adult group. Many have not studied since childhood and want a setting where asking a basic question is comfortable.
What is expected at home
None for adults. For under-18s a guardian is present at enrolment.
How long it takes
Noorani Qaida (Complete) typically runs 16–40 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.
