Quick answer

What age should a child start Noorani Qaida?

Most children are ready at 4 or 5, once they can sit for 15 minutes and repeat a sound back. Starting between 4 and 6 with 3 classes a week, most finish the 17 lessons in 4 to 6 months. With 2 classes a week it takes about 8 to 10 months. In our Noorani Qaida for kids classes, children aged 7 to 14 who already read with mistakes start at the lesson where the mistakes begin.

    Two free classes answer most questions. Your teacher checks the level and you decide after.

    Book free classes

    Can a kindergarten child learn Noorani Qaida online?

    Yes. In our online Noorani Qaida course for kids, children from age 4 have 15–20 minute classes built on sounds, not reading. A parent sits nearby for the first few classes until your child is comfortable on Zoom.

    How long does it take a child to finish Noorani Qaida?

    Most children who start at 4 to 6 finish in 4 to 6 months with 3 classes a week, or 8 to 10 months with 2. Older children are often faster.

    My child doesn’t speak Arabic. Is that a problem?

    No. Noorani Qaida teaches reading, not speaking, and the teacher explains in clear English.

    Can my child have a female teacher?

    Yes. Choose “Female teacher” in the form and we match your child with one.

    My child reads but makes mistakes. Do they start from page 1?

    No. The first free class includes a level check, and your child starts at the first lesson where mistakes appear.

    What class times do you offer?

    Teachers are available 24/7, so we set after-school or weekend times in your time zone, whether you are in the USA, UK, Canada or Australia.

    What comes after Noorani Qaida?

    Fluent Quran reading, then Tajweed or Hifz, with the same teacher if you like.
