Our online Quran courses, side by side

All five courses are live, with one teacher and one learner. Use the table to see where a student fits; if you are unsure, pick “Help me choose” when you enrol and the teacher will place the student after hearing them read.

Where should I start?

  • Cannot read Arabic letters yet → Noorani Qaida.
  • Knows the letters but reads slowly → Quran Reading.
  • Reads fluently but wants correct recitation → Tajweed.
  • Reads well and wants to memorise → Hifz.
  • Wants to understand common words → Quranic Arabic.

The usual path is Qaida → Reading → Tajweed, then Hifz or Quranic Arabic. Students can move up whenever the teacher sees they are ready.
