What actually makes one online Quran academy better than another

3 Days Free Trial, then from $30 a month · Female supervisor in every class
The short answer
Judge an academy on four things: who is in the lesson with your child, whether your child keeps the same teacher, how easy it is to change or stop, and the real price per lesson. Nice websites and big numbers matter less than these.

The four things that matter
- SupervisionIs anyone else in the lesson? For how long?
- ContinuitySame teacher, same time, every week?
- Exit termsCan you change teacher or stop without a fight?
- Real priceMonthly fee divided by lessons, and what is included.
Also worth checking
- A clear course path: Qaida, reading, Tajweed, Hifz
- Progress reports you can understand
- A free trial before paying
- Real, recent reviews

Quick questions
Are cheaper academies worse?
Not always. Compare the price per lesson and what is included, especially supervision and one-to-one teaching.
