Online Quran teacher
What makes a good online Quran teacher for kids?
Three things: correct recitation, patience with children, and someone checking the teacher’s work. A teacher can recite beautifully and still not be good with a six-year-old. So every teacher at Online Quran Learnings is checked before teaching, trained in how we teach children, and listened to by a female supervisor in every class. For families in the United States, lessons are set on your own local time (ET, CT, MT, PT, Alaska and Hawaii).
Correct recitation
Quran and Tajweed certificates are seen and checked before a first student.
Good with children

Male or female teacher: how do I choose?
It is your choice, and both cost the same. A female supervisor is in every class either way, and you can switch later.
A female teacher
Some parents choose a female teacher for a daughter, especially as she grows older, or for a very young or shy child.
A male teacher
Some parents choose a male teacher for a son, especially as he grows older. Boys and girls can learn with either.
Not sure yet? Choose “No preference” on the form. You can change teacher any time, without giving a reason.

Will my child keep the same teacher?
Yes. Your child keeps the same teacher at the same time each week, so they get to know each other. If something needs to change, this is how it works.

- Move a class
- Message us on WhatsApp as early as you can. We find another time, with the same teacher where possible.
- If the teacher cannot make a class
- Any class missed on our side is refunded or taken off next month’s fee.
- If your child misses a class
- Tell us before the class, then choose a make-up class or have the fee adjusted next month. A class missed without telling us cannot be made up.
- Stop any time
- There is no contract. Ask within 5 calendar days of the first paid class for a full refund.

How much does a Quran teacher cost in the USA?
Plans start at $30 a month, and a male or female teacher costs the same. Prices are in US dollars. 3 Days Free Trial first, no card.
What time are classes with a Quran teacher in the USA?
Classes run 24/7, so any time works. A 30-minute slot fits well between 4pm and 8pm in your own time zone after school, or on a Saturday or Sunday morning. Clocks change in March and November in most states (not Arizona or Hawaii). We move your slot with them so the lesson stays at the same local time.
How do I find a good online Quran teacher for my child?
Look for correct recitation, patience with children, and real checks and supervision. Ask whether classes are one-to-one, whether you can sit in, and whether you can change teacher. Then try a free trial before you pay.
Are your teachers qualified?
Every teacher’s Quran and Tajweed certificates are checked, and each one passes an interview and a demo class our team watches before teaching a child.
Should I choose a male or female teacher?
It is your choice, and both cost the same. Some parents choose a female teacher for a daughter or a very young child, and a male teacher for a son. A female supervisor is in every class either way, and you can change teacher any time.
11 more questions
Can I meet the teacher before I pay?
Yes. Your child starts with a 3-day free trial with a real teacher. You can sit in, see how they get on, and only pay if you decide to continue.
Who watches the teacher during class?
A female supervisor joins every class live and listens to the whole lesson. You can join any class too, without telling us first.
Will the teacher contact my child outside class?
No. Teachers never message children outside class. Every message goes through our team to the parent.
What if my child does not get on with the teacher?
Tell us and we change the teacher. You do not need to give a reason.
We are on the West Coast. Are after-school classes available?
Yes. Pacific time is usually the easiest American slot to fill: a 4pm class in California is a comfortable hour for our teachers. Eastern time between 5pm and 7pm fills first, so book that one early.
Are the classes live or recorded?
Live, always. Your child reads with a real teacher on a video call, never a recorded course. Lessons are also recorded, so you can ask for the recording any time.
What language do teachers explain in?
English or Urdu, so your child understands every correction. The reading itself is always in Arabic.
What do we need for a class?
A laptop, tablet or phone, a steady internet connection and headphones with a mic. A quiet spot at a table helps.
Is the free trial really free?
Yes. 3 Days Free Trial with no card and no obligation. You only pay if you decide to continue.
What is your refund policy?
Ask within 5 calendar days of the first paid class for a full refund. After that, we charge only for the classes your child attended and return the rest.
What if we want to stop?
The trial has no obligation. After that, ask within 5 calendar days of the first paid class for a full refund. After that, attended classes are deducted and the rest is refunded.
