Children from about five years old and adults at any level, including those who can already recite the Quran but do not understand what they are reading. The course is taught one-to-one, so the pace follows the student rather than a class.
| Stage | What the student works on |
|---|---|
| 1 | The letters — shapes, names, sounds, and how they change at the start, middle and end of a word. |
| 2 | The vowel marks — fathah, kasrah, dammah, sukoon, shaddah and tanween. |
| 3 | Simple words — reading two and three letter words accurately and without hesitation. |
| 4 | Longer words and sentences — including the long vowels and connected script. |
| 5 | Reading from the Mus’haf — applying the reading skill to real Quranic text. |
| 6 | Vocabulary and dialogue — everyday words, question forms, and short spoken exchanges. |
| 7 | Foundations of grammar — the noun, the verb and the particle; the sentence and its parts. |
| 8 | Consolidation and certificate — an assessment covering reading, comprehension and speaking. |
The teacher chooses from these according to the student’s age and level, and sends the material being used so parents can follow along.
A beginner cannot be taught Arabic only in Arabic. Depending on the teacher assigned, explanation is available in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish, and shifts gradually towards Arabic as the student progresses. Tell us the preferred language when you get in touch.
A certificate is issued on completion of the programme, recording what was assessed. It is issued by BARAKKA LLC on the basis of our own assessment and carries no external accreditation.
No payment details, no obligation — just tell us the student’s age and current level.
