Before you book
Questions about what we teach
What is the difference between a service and a course?
A course is a route through a stage of learning with a curriculum and a typical duration. A service is the narrower thing a lesson does — a single Tajweed rule, revision of a memorised portion, preparation for an Ijazah. Most families start from a course and the services follow from it.
Can a lesson cover more than one of these?
Yes. Lessons are one to one, so the tutor moves between reading, correction and revision as the student needs rather than following a fixed script.
Are these taught differently for children and adults?
The same service looks different for a six-year-old than for an adult returning after twenty years. Lesson length, pace and what is expected between lessons all change with the student.
How do we know which service we need?
The free trial ends with an assessment of where the student actually is, and the tutor recommends what to work on. You do not have to decide this from a list.
Is every service available with a female tutor?
Yes. You choose the tutor when you book, and it stays the same person for every lesson unless you ask to change.
If your question is not here, ask it. We would rather answer honestly now than have you find out after enrolling.
