How it is taught
Every quran reading lesson, one to one
There are no group classes, so the pace follows the student rather than the timetable. What changes between one student and the next is the lesson length and how often they sit down, not what they are allowed to reach.
- The same tutor every lessonYou choose a male or female tutor when you book, and it stays that person unless you ask to change.
- Your timezone, not oursLessons are scheduled around your evening, wherever you are, seven days a week.
- Notes after every lessonWhat was covered and what to practise, written down, so progress is something you can see rather than take on trust.
The trial lesson ends with an assessment of where the student actually is. If a different area would suit them better, the tutor will say so.
Who we teach
The same area, planned differently
Lesson length, pace and what is expected at home all change with the student. These are the groups we plan lessons around.
Young Children (ages 4–7)
Usually no Arabic letters at all, and often no experience of a structured lesson. Reading ability in their first language may still be forming.
20-minute lessons · 3–5 a week
Children (ages 8–11)
Often part-way through a Qaida, or reading slowly with errors nobody has corrected. Some arrive having memorised surahs by ear without being able to read them.
30-minute lessons · 2–5 a week
Teenagers (ages 12–17)
Extremely varied. Some read fluently and want Tajweed or Hifz; others stopped at eight and are self-conscious about being behind.
45-minute lessons · 2–4 a week
Adults
Often reading slowly with errors carried since childhood, or starting from nothing. Adults usually know exactly what they cannot do, which makes diagnosis quick.
45-minute lessons · 1–3 a week
Sisters
As varied as any adult group. Many have not studied since childhood and want a setting where asking a basic question is comfortable.
45-minute lessons · 1–3 a week
Complete Beginners
No Arabic letters, no prior study. Sometimes no experience of the script at all, including which direction it runs.
30-minute lessons · 2–4 a week
New Muslims
No Arabic, and often no background knowledge to hang it on. Frequently learning to pray at the same time as learning to read.
45-minute lessons · 1–3 a week
Older Learners
Often learned as a child decades ago and retained fragments. Eyesight and screen size are practical considerations more often than learning ability.
30-minute lessons · 1–3 a week
Working Professionals
Usually able to read at some level but inconsistent, having started and stopped more than once.
30-minute lessons · 1–2 a week
Families
Mixed levels within one household, which is the actual scheduling problem to be solved.
45-minute lessons · 1–3 a week

Before you book
Questions about quran reading
Which of these quran reading services do we need?
There are 3 to choose between, and you do not have to decide alone. The free trial ends with an assessment of where the student actually is, and the tutor recommends which to start with — including where something in another area would serve better.
Who is this area suited to?
Anyone who cannot yet read the mushaf without help.
Is the teaching adapted to the age of the student?
Yes. Lessons are planned around 10 groups of student, each with its own lesson length and weekly frequency, because a twenty-minute lesson for a five-year-old and a forty-five-minute lesson for an adult are not the same lesson at different lengths.
Can a student take more than one of these at once?
Yes. Lessons are one to one, so a tutor moves between reading, correction and revision as the student needs rather than following a fixed script.
Can we choose a male or female tutor?
Yes. You choose when you book, and it stays the same tutor for every lesson unless you ask to change.
Is the trial lesson really free?
Yes. It is a full lesson with a tutor, not a sales call, and it ends with a written assessment. We do not ask for payment details to book it.
If your question is not here, ask it. We would rather answer honestly now than have you find out after enrolling.
