Frequently Asked Questions

Use the booking form, or message us by email. We'll reply within 24 hours to arrange a time. In the trial, the teacher meets the student, listens to them read and recommends where to begin. There's nothing to pay and no commitment.

Most children are ready for Noorani Qaida once they can sit through a short lesson and recognise shapes, often between four and six years old. Tell us your child's age and we'll suggest a pace that suits them.

Of course. Adults are welcome at every level, including the very first letter. Classes are one-to-one, so you learn at your own pace with no one else watching.

If you can't read Arabic letters yet, start with Noorani Qaida. If you can read but aren't sure your pronunciation is right, choose Quran Reading with Tajweed. Not sure? Your trial teacher will tell you.

Not at the moment. We focus on doing two things well: learning to read the Quran with Noorani Qaida, and reciting it correctly with Tajweed.

Our teachers hold Ijazah, a certified chain of recitation passed from teacher to student, and are graduates of Islamic universities. They teach in English, so children raised outside the Arab world understand every explanation.

Yes. Parents are welcome to sit in on any class, and you can ask for a recording of your child's lessons at any time.

Live on Google Meet, with the teacher's camera on. On a laptop it runs in the browser with nothing to install, and the Google Meet app works on phones and tablets.

Yes. We have both female and male teachers. Tell us your preference when you book.

Your teacher sends regular progress updates, so you always know what your child has learned and what comes next.

A laptop, tablet or phone with a microphone and a steady internet connection. Headphones help younger children focus. We'll send you the Google Meet link before your first lesson.

Our plans are built around 30-minute classes. That's long enough to learn something new and short enough for young children to stay focused.

Yes, a little. At the end of each class the teacher sets a short practice for the days in between. Regular practice is what makes each lesson stick.

Yes. Plans run month to month, with no long contract. You can stop whenever you like.

Tell us, and we'll match you with another teacher at no extra cost. It's important that your child feels comfortable.
