Learn the Quran from the very beginning

From $39/month · One-to-one · 60-minute lessons
This is for you if…
- You cannot read Arabic yet — not even the letters.
- You are a new Muslim and want to read the Quran and learn surahs for prayer.
- You tried apps or videos but need a real person to guide and correct you.
- You want a clear plan, not random lessons.
Your 12-week pathway
- 01Weeks 1–3: the letters

- 02Weeks 4–6: vowels and joining
Read letters with short vowels and see how letters join inside words.
- 03Weeks 7–9: all the marks
Sukoon, shaddah, tanween and long vowels, until you can read any word slowly.
- 04Weeks 10–12: your first surahs
Read Al-Fatiha and short surahs with your teacher correcting you as you go.

Frequently asked questions
Is this suitable for complete beginners?
Yes. The free diagnostic finds your exact starting point, and many learners begin without recognising a single Arabic letter.
Will 12 weeks make me fluent?
The pathway builds a strong reading foundation. Progress depends on your starting point, practice and lesson frequency; your teacher will give you an honest personal timeline.
I am a new Muslim. Can you help me learn surahs for prayer?
Yes. Alongside reading, your teacher can help you learn Al-Fatiha and short surahs with correct pronunciation so you can recite them in salah.
What happens in the free diagnostic?
You meet a teacher online for 30 minutes, read whatever you comfortably can, talk about your goals and schedule, and get an honest recommendation for where to start — with no obligation to sign up.
What do I need for online lessons?
A phone, tablet or computer with a stable internet connection. Lesson links and practice support are shared with you directly.
