We live in an increasingly diverse and multicultural society in the UK. Consequently, many families are seeking to maintain a stronger connection to their cultural and religious roots, while ensuring their children have a well-rounded education.
One of the key ways Muslim parents do this is through after-school Quran tutoring.
Our tutoring can not only help your child learn how to recite verses from the Quran; we can help them kindle a deep spiritual connection.
When considering after-school Quran tutoring, it's crucial to choose a service that offers several key benefits: regular lessons, English-speaking Arab teachers who are CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) checked, and the provision of monthly progress reports.
Here’s why we feel these key elements are effective:
The value of regular, consistent lessons
To effectively learn and retain Quranic knowledge, consistency is key. Scheduling 2-5 weekly lessons of 30 minutes each allows for regular interaction with the material, ensuring that the child remains engaged and continuously improves.
Our short, frequent sessions are designed to suit the learning pace of young students, keeping them focused without overwhelming them.
This structure also allows for the steady progression of learning, whether the focus is on Tajweed (the correct pronunciation of Quranic Arabic), memorisation of Surahs, or understanding the meanings and context of the verses.
With our regular lessons, you can reinforce learning and build confidence in your child, as they gradually move from simple to more complex topics in a structured manner.
The Quran Hour can help learning become a part of the child’s routine. This routine is essential in helping children view their religious education as an integral part of their daily lives rather than an additional burden. In this way, our after-school Quran tutoring can nurture a lifelong love and respect for their faith.
Why we use English-Speaking Arab teachers
Firstly, our teachers are native speakers of Arabic, which means they can provide accurate pronunciation, an essential aspect of learning the Quran. Learning Quranic Arabic from a native speaker ensures that students are taught the correct Tajweed rules, which is critical for proper recitation.
Additionally, the ability to speak English fluently means that these teachers can explain complex concepts in a language that the child fully understands. This bilingual approach is crucial because it bridges the gap between the child's daily language (English) and their religious language (Arabic). When children understand the meanings behind the verses they recite, their learning becomes more meaningful and impactful.
Furthermore, English-speaking Arab teachers can better relate to the cultural context of their students in the UK, providing a more personalised and relevant teaching experience. They can draw parallels between the teachings of the Quran and the children’s experiences in British society, making the lessons more engaging and easier to apply in everyday life.
Complete peace of mind with our CRB-checked tutors
The safety and security of children are paramount when selecting an after-school tutoring service.
CRB checks are a standard measure in the UK to ensure that those working with children do not have a history of criminal activity that could put the child at risk. By choosing our CRB-checked tutors, you can have peace of mind knowing that your child is in safe hands.
Moreover, our CRB-checked tutors demonstrate a commitment to maintaining high standards of child protection and safeguarding. This assurance is particularly important in a private tutoring context where lessons often take place in the home or online, outside the typical oversight that might be present in a school environment.
The benefits of our monthly progress reports
In addition to providing a high standard of education and safeguarding, our quality Quran tutoring service offers regular updates on your child’s progress.
Monthly reports are an excellent way for parents to stay informed about their child’s learning journey. These reports typically outline what has been covered in lessons, highlight areas of strength, and identify any aspects where additional support may be needed.
This regular feedback loop not only keeps parents involved in their child’s education but also allows for the adjustment of teaching strategies to better suit the child’s learning needs. It ensures that the tutoring is effective and that the child is on track to meet their learning goals.
Furthermore, progress reports provide tangible evidence of the child’s development over time, which can be particularly motivating for the student. Seeing their achievements recognised can boost the child’s confidence and encourage them to continue working hard.
We provide a thoughtful approach to Quranic learning, which strengthens your child's connection to their faith but also helps them navigate their identity within the broader context of British society. If your child needs support learning the Quran, simply contact our friendly team for more information.
