For new Muslims and first-time learners
Just embraced Islam, or never had the chance to learn to read the Quran? Start from the Arabic letters with a patient teacher in live, one-to-one lessons from home, at your own pace and with no assumptions about what you already know.
Begin at the very first step: the Arabic letters and their sounds. There is no assumed background and no pressure to keep up with anyone else.
Many born Muslims also missed learning to read Arabic as children. You can start now, privately, in a one-to-one lesson.
Female Quran teachers are available for women, so you can learn in a setting you are comfortable with.
Pair Quran reading with our Islamic Studies course, which covers essential beliefs, worship and manners at a level that suits you.
Arabic letters, sounds and joining words. This is where complete beginners start.
Move on to reading verses, with the rules of Tajweed explained step by step.
Essential beliefs, daily worship, manners and the life of the Prophet ﷺ, taught gently and clearly.
When you are ready, begin learning short passages by heart with regular revision.
Lessons are online, so you can join from anywhere in the UK or USA, and from other countries too. All you need is a phone, tablet or computer and an internet connection.
