Online Quran Classes for Kids

Every class is live and one-to-one, with no other student present. Girls are always taught by female teachers, in a fully private one-to-one class. Murouj matches each child with a suitable teacher for the free trial class. Parents and guardians book and manage classes for under-18s and supervise their child's internet use during classes. If you have a concern, message us on WhatsApp or email us.

No. Girls are taught by female teachers at Murouj Academy, and when a female teacher teaches a female student, no non-mahram man can see the student, including the teacher's husband or any other man in her household. Murouj Academy follows Islamic etiquette for privacy and makes sure of this.

Yes. The minimum age at Murouj Academy is 4, and teachers are hired only if they are fully qualified to teach children from age 4. A 4-year-old starts gently, usually with the Arabic letters and the Noorani Qaida, in short, friendly one-to-one lessons. The teacher matched to your child in the free trial will see whether your child is ready.

Yes. Our Early kids group is ages 4 to 8, so a 5-year-old fits right in. A 5-year-old usually starts with the Arabic letters and the Noorani Qaida in short, friendly one-to-one lessons, and Murouj matches a teacher for the free trial class.

Yes. At 8 your child is in our Early kids group (4 to 8), and from 9 in our Kids group (9 to 12). An 8-year-old who knows the letters usually moves on to reading the Quran with Tajweed, and may begin memorising short surahs. Girls are always taught by female teachers, and Murouj matches the teacher for the free trial class.

Yes. Teens (13 to 17) learn one-to-one, usually working on Tajweed, recitation correction and memorisation, with Arabic alongside. The profiles of Abrar R., Soha A. and Mariam K. say they teach teens, and teenage girls are taught by female teachers.

Yes. Parents are welcome to visit and stay during lessons. With a female teacher, only female family members, such as mothers and sisters, may be in the room, and no men may be present on either side. Many of our female teachers normally wear the niqab but teach with their faces uncovered, so the child can see how letters are pronounced, which is why the room is women only.

No. Lessons are never recorded, and recording is not allowed. A female admin may join a lesson to observe quality, and all of Murouj Academy's admins are women.

Yes. Kids' classes at Murouj Academy are fun and engaging while staying educational. Children are taught by teachers with strong English communication and expression skills who can keep a child interested, in short one-to-one lessons.

Every teacher is a native Arabic speaker, most speak English (some teach in German), and every teacher is qualified and trained to teach both children and adults. To teach children a teacher needs strong English communication and expression skills and the ability to keep a child engaged, and at the interview each teacher presents the teaching materials and curriculum they prepared for kids.

Yes, up to age 12. A female teacher teaches boys from age 4 up to age 12, and boys can also learn with a male teacher. Girls are taught only by female teachers, and male teachers never teach girls.

Often, yes. It is common at Murouj Academy for one female teacher to teach a mother, her daughters and her sons up to age 12. Each child has their own one-to-one lesson, and Murouj matches a teacher for the free trial class.

No class is ever missed. If the teacher is away for a day or a few days, the missed lessons are made up on other days once the teacher is back, or a temporary substitute teaches until the assigned teacher returns. Your child's own teacher stays their assigned teacher, and a girl's substitute is always a female teacher.

Every class has a written report, shared in your family's own WhatsApp group with our admin team. The report covers how your child did, what was covered in the class, the homework and the teacher's notes, which can be honest, such as "wasn't focused today", or a compliment. A child with daily classes gets a daily report.

Murouj Academy teaches Early kids (4 to 8), Kids (9 to 12), Teens (13 to 17) and Adults (18 and over). The groups are a guide, not a barrier: each child follows a personalised plan, and the teacher checks the level in the free trial.

The best online Quran class for a child is one-to-one, with a native Arab teacher matched to the child, short lessons matched to the child's age, and a free trial before you commit. Murouj Academy offers live one-to-one classes, a free trial with a teacher Murouj matches to your child, and girls taught by female teachers.

Murouj does. At Murouj Academy each child is matched 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, your child continues with that teacher. Most children learn with female teachers.

Yes. Girls are always taught by female teachers at Murouj Academy. For boys, Murouj matches a male or female teacher, and most children learn with female teachers.

Many children begin structured Quran lessons between about 4 and 8, but readiness matters more than the birthday. The minimum age at Murouj Academy is 4, and teachers are hired only if they are fully qualified to teach children from age 4. Tell us your child's age when you book the free trial, and the teacher matched to your child will check whether your child is ready and suggest how to start.

Yes. Every Murouj Academy class is one-to-one, and we never run group classes. Your child has the teacher's full attention and follows a personalised plan at their own pace.

Lessons last 30, 45 or 60 minutes, 2 to 5 times a week. You agree the length and the number of classes when you book, and the teacher can suggest what suits your child's age and attention.

Yes. Every Murouj Academy teacher is a native Arabic speaker from the Arab world. Some hold an ijazah, a formal authorisation to teach the Quran; each profile states which.

Most beginners start with the Arabic letters and Qaidah, then move on to reading the Quran with Tajweed. After that a child can memorise the Quran, study Islamic studies or learn Arabic. The teacher builds the plan around your child.

Lessons are live on Zoom, Google Meet or Halqora, Murouj's own online classroom software, on a phone, tablet or computer. On Halqora the teacher's Quran page and whiteboard appear on your child's screen, and the teacher tells you which one the lesson uses.

Contact us for fees on WhatsApp. Our class plans page lists the 30, 45 and 60-minute lessons, and every student starts with a free trial class.

You can cancel up to 3 hours before the class starts, with at most 2 cancellations a month, and that class is made up on another day. Within 3 hours of the start, a cancellation for a genuine emergency, such as illness, a device problem or an internet problem, is accepted and the class is made up on another day. Cancelling within 3 hours without an acceptable reason, or not showing up, means the class is charged in full and is not made up; you can book a replacement, but it counts and is charged as a new class. Teachers are held to the same commitment: if yours is unavailable or starts late, the class or the missed minutes are made up, and you are not charged.

Invoices are issued in your local currency, for example US dollars, pounds sterling, Canadian dollars or Australian dollars. They are sent monthly: after the month, or in advance, depending on the arrangement we agree with you. You can pay through PayPal or Wise.
