The short answer

For most children, three or four short classes a week work best. Two a week is a gentle start for young children. Five a week suits Hifz, where daily revision matters. Short, frequent lessons beat one or two long ones, because children forget less between classes.

How many Quran classes a week does a child need?: a guide for parents from Online Quran Learnings

Which plan fits your child

Classes a weekGood for
1Very young children, or a very busy term
2Starting Noorani Qaida gently
3Steady progress in Qaida and reading
4Tajweed, or Quran plus Islamic studies
5Hifz, with daily new lines and revision

Each class is 30 minutes, one-to-one. See the prices on our fees page.

Why more, shorter classes work

A child who reads four days a week remembers far more than one who reads once for two hours. Gaps of four or five days mean the first part of each class is spent catching up.

Quick questions

Can we change the number of classes later?

Yes. You can move up or down between plans.

Is one class a week enough?

It keeps a young child in touch with the Quran, but progress will be slow. Two or more is better for reading.
