Questions, answered plainly
Thirty of the questions we are asked most. If yours is not here, message us and a coordinator will answer the same day.
Getting started
How do I get started?
Fill in the registration form with the course you want, the student's age and level, and the times that suit you. A coordinator proposes a teacher and books your three free classes, usually within 24 hours.
Is the trial really free?
Yes. Three classes, no card details taken, and no obligation afterwards. You pay only if you decide to continue.
How soon can I start?
Most students have their first class within two to three days of registering. It depends on how quickly we can match your preferred timings with an available teacher.
What age do you teach from?
From about five years old, up to any age. Our oldest students are in their sixties. Because classes are one-to-one, the pace is set for the individual.
I have never read Arabic before. Can I still join?
Yes. Many students start from the Arabic alphabet. Your teacher assesses you in the first class and starts exactly where you are.
Teachers & classes
Are classes one-to-one or in groups?
One-to-one by default. Only you and your teacher are present. The family package places two siblings in one longer class if you choose that option.
Will I have the same teacher every class?
Yes. You are matched with one teacher who keeps a written record of your progress. Cover is arranged only if they are unwell or travelling, and you are told in advance.
Can I request a female teacher?
Yes, at any point and at no additional cost. Female teachers are permanent staff rather than arranged on request, so there is no waiting list.
What qualifications do your teachers have?
Every teacher has completed memorisation of the Quran or holds a recognised qualification in Islamic studies. All are tested on Tajweed by us directly and pass an observed teaching trial with a real student before being assigned. The full process is on our about page.
Can I change teacher if the fit is not right?
Yes, at any point and at no cost. A mismatch in pace or teaching style is common and is nobody's fault. Tell your coordinator and we reassign.
What languages do teachers speak?
English and Urdu are standard. Arabic is available on request, and other languages depending on availability.
Timings & schedule
How long is each class?
Thirty minutes for individual students and sixty minutes for family packages covering two students. Longer sessions can be arranged if your course needs them.
How many classes a week should I take?
Two or three is enough for Quran reading or Islamic Studies. Memorisation needs five days a week to progress at a reasonable pace. Your teacher will tell you honestly what your goal requires.
What times are classes available?
Twenty-four hours a day across all time zones. Early morning before work and after-school slots are the most requested, so book those further ahead.
What happens if I miss a class?
Tell your teacher in advance and it is rescheduled at no charge. Classes missed without notice can usually still be made up within the same month.
Can I change my schedule later?
Yes. You can move up or down between schedules at the start of any month, and your fee changes accordingly.
Courses
Which course should I start with?
If you cannot yet read Arabic fluently, start with the Nazra Quran Course. If you read fluently and want to memorise, start with Hifz with Tajweed. Your teacher confirms this after assessing you in the first class.
Can I take more than one course?
Yes, and many students do. Quran reading three days a week alongside Islamic Studies twice a week is a common combination.
Do you teach according to a particular school of thought?
We teach Quran reading, memorisation and Tajweed, which are common to all Muslims. Where practice differs between schools of thought, your teacher follows the one your family follows — tell us when you enrol.
Do you give certificates?
Yes, on completion of a course. For students who want to go further we also guide the next steps toward an Ijazah with a qualified teacher.
Fees & payment
How much do classes cost?
Individual classes start at $30 a month for one day a week and rise to $50 for five days. Family packages covering two students start at $60. Full details, including GBP, CAD and EUR, are on the fees page.
Are there any registration or hidden fees?
No. The monthly fee is the only charge. There is no registration fee, no material fee, and no charge for requesting a male or female teacher.
How do I pay?
Your coordinator sends payment details once you decide to continue after the trial. Fees are billed monthly in advance.
Can I pause my classes?
Yes. Let your coordinator know before the next billing month and your place and teacher are held where possible. You are not charged while paused.
Do you offer discounts for more than two children?
Yes. The listed family packages cover two students. For three or more, contact us and we will quote based on the schedule you need.
Technical & parents
What device and internet speed do I need?
Any phone, tablet, laptop or desktop with a working camera and a stable connection. A basic broadband or 4G connection is enough for a video call.
Which platform are classes held on?
Zoom or Google Meet, whichever you prefer. Your teacher shares the page on screen so you both look at the same text. No special software is needed.
Do I need my own copy of the Quran?
A physical mushaf is helpful but not required. Your teacher can share a digital copy on screen, and we recommend a printed one once you are reading regularly.
Can parents sit in on classes?
Yes, always. We encourage parents to observe the first few classes, and you are welcome to join at any time afterwards.
How is my child's progress reported?
Teachers log what was covered and what needs work after every class, and you receive a short weekly summary showing progress and the areas needing extra practice.
