My daughter’s favorite teacher Sister maryam and insha’allah my son will start this year. I’m really happy with their services. They’re really helpful when you need to reschedule. Teachers were very joyful and friendly. My daughter waits for her class. They know how to make class more interesting for kids to learn. I have personally suggested to them to my family and friends and now I am writing this review. Alhamdulilallah I am a happy parent and I suggest you to get your child to a great start.

Alhumdullillah this is the best choice we have made. The whole system is convenient and the admin make the working parent lied so easy by adjusting according to our needs. Now coming to the teacher, the teacher is very interactive with the kids. I have 2 kids and my younger one is 5, and when she is sat for the lesson after school she used to be both tired inattentive. The teacher was very patience with her and tried to entertain with different teaching techniques. Very friendly with my kids, they adore her and would like to meet her one day when we visit Egypt. And I had to add this line as my kids insisted. Over all an excellent organization.

How does the free trial class work?
Book on the free trial page or on WhatsApp, and tell us who will be learning, your goals, your level, your time zone and when you are free. We recommend an available teacher and arrange the trial with them. Your free trial is a real one-to-one lesson, where the teacher checks your level and suggests a personalised plan.
Are the classes one-to-one?
Yes. Murouj Academy teaches one-to-one only and never runs group classes. Every student follows a personalised curriculum, in lessons of 30, 45 or 60 minutes, 2 to 5 times a week.
Who are the teachers?
Every Murouj Academy teacher is a native Arabic speaker from the Arab world. Some hold an ijazah, each profile states which, and many of our teachers studied at or are certified by Al-Azhar. All of them teach in English as well as Arabic.
What platform do online Quran classes use?
Lessons are live on Zoom, Google Meet or Halqora, Murouj's own online classroom software. Halqora lets the teacher and student share the screen, annotate, open the same book and follow along together. Your teacher tells you which one your lesson uses.
What is an ijazah?
An ijazah is a formal, chain-based authorisation from a qualified teacher. It certifies that the holder has mastered a body of knowledge, such as reciting the Quran, and may teach it and certify others. A relative or friend who knows the Quran can help you practise, but is not a certified teacher.
Which school of thought do you follow?
We follow mainstream Sunni scholarship. Our teachers focus on the Quran, tajweed, Arabic and core Islamic studies, taught respectfully and without sectarian debate. Families from any background are welcome to try a free class; if a specific topic matters to your family, mention it at the trial and we will match you with a suitable teacher.
Will women and girls be taught by a female teacher?
Yes, always. At Murouj Academy women and girls are taught by female teachers, and adult men are taught by male teachers. For children, Murouj matches the teacher, and most children learn with female teachers.
How is my teacher matched?
Murouj matches each student with a suitable teacher for the free trial class. If the fit is not right, Murouj switches to another teacher, and this can repeat. When the fit is right, you continue with that teacher. Matching is never random.
Which courses do you teach?
Courses for children and adults: Quran Memorization (Hifz) and Quran Revision, Tajweed Classes, Quran Recitation Correction, Qaida Classes for Beginners, Standard Arabic, Arabic for Kids and Quranic Arabic, basic tafsir (Understand the Quran), and Islamic Studies for kids and for teens, plus an Intensive Hifz Program with daily classes. The Quran is our main focus, and every course is one-to-one.
We live in North America, Europe or Australia. Will the class times work?
Yes. Our teachers are flexible and book every class in your local time, with after-school, evening and weekend slots. You pick the times that suit you when you book the free trial.
Can I learn the Quran online, or by myself?
Apps and videos can teach you the letters and help you practise. Reading the Quran correctly, with Tajweed, needs a qualified teacher who hears you recite and corrects you as you go, which is what a one-to-one online class gives you.
What class plans do you offer?
There are four plans, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Fluency, with 2, 3, 4 or 5 one-to-one lessons a week, and every lesson is 30, 45 or 60 minutes, live online at any time of day. Every student starts with a free trial class. The Class plans page has the details; contact us for pricing.
Can I get help outside class time?
Yes. Our support team is available 24/7 on WhatsApp to answer questions and help with anything related to your classes: scheduling, a missed class, a teacher change or payments. You can also call or email us from the contact page.
Do you have a referral program?
Yes. If someone refers someone else to Murouj Academy, both of them get 25% off their classes for one month. Tell us who referred you when you sign up or book your free trial. See the referral program page for details.
