The Quran for your children, letter by letter
Live lessons suited to children's ages, starting with the letters and building up to reading from the mushaf and memorisation, in a calm setting that helps them love the Quran.
What your child will learn
Three stages. Each child starts from the stage that matches their level.
-
Reading from the very beginning
For those who don't know the letters yet, or read with difficulty
The letters, their sounds and where they are pronounced, the vowel marks, tanwīn and madd, then joining letters and reading words, building up to reading from the mushaf.
-
Recitation with Tajweed
For those who can read and want to recite correctly
How and where each letter is pronounced, the rules of nūn and mīm with sukūn and of tanwīn, and prolongation (madd), with recitation corrected in every lesson.
-
Memorisation and revision
For those who want to memorise and keep it
Step-by-step memorisation, starting with the short surahs of Juz ʿAmma, with a regular revision plan so that memorised surahs stay secure.
How children's lessons work
- A lesson length agreed with you to suit your child, for example 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
- Usually two or three lessons a week, at regular times agreed in your time zone.
- Constant encouragement and gentle correction in every lesson.
- A monthly report for parents on their child's progress.
Safe lessons for children
Clear commitments that parents know before their child starts:
- Everything is arranged with the parent or guardian, and all messages go to them.
- A parent or another adult stays nearby throughout the lesson.
- Lessons run through the parent's account, or a link sent to the parent.
- Lessons are never recorded; Aya takes notes for parents instead.
- Children's photos, names and voices are never published.
Questions from parents
From what age can a child start?
From around age 5. The right starting point is agreed after the trial lesson.
Does Aya teach boys?
Yes. Aya teaches girls, and boys up to the age of 15.
Will lessons suit a child who doesn't speak Arabic well?
Lessons are taught mainly in Arabic, with basic English support that helps children who understand some Arabic. Your child's level is assessed at the trial lesson.
Does a parent need to attend the lesson?
A parent or another adult only needs to stay nearby throughout the lesson.
How will we know how our child is doing?
Parents receive a monthly report, and you can ask Aya about your child's progress at any time.
Request a trial lesson
Four short steps. Aya replies within two days.
If the student is under 18, a parent or guardian must send the request.
