Online Tajweed Classes
Learn to recite the Quran the way it was revealed, with proper pronunciation, rhythm, and beauty. Our certified Tajweed specialists teach all the rules from Makharij to Madd, at your own pace, entirely in English.
What Is the Tajweed Course?
Tajweed (ΨͺΨ¬ΩΩΨ―) literally means βto make something excellentβ, and in the context of the Quran, it refers to the science of reciting the Quran with the precise pronunciation, articulation, and rules that preserve the words of Allah exactly as they were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ο·Ί.
Our Tajweed course is taught by specialists certified from Wifaq ul Madaris Al-Arabia. The course covers every major rule of Tajweed, from how to correctly position your tongue for each Arabic letter (Makharij) to the rules of elongation (Madd), stopping points (Waqf), and beautification of the voice.
Classes are one-on-one, taught entirely in English, and structured to suit your current level, whether you are a complete beginner or an intermediate student wanting to refine your existing recitation.

Class Structure & Methodology
Rule-by-Rule Progression
Each class introduces one or two rules with detailed explanation, audio demonstration, and immediate practice on Quranic text. Rules are never rushed, only when a rule is mastered do we move forward.
Real-Time Pronunciation Correction
Your teacher listens to every word and corrects mistakes instantly. You receive clear, simple English explanations for why a sound is wrong and exactly how to fix it.
Duration Options
Classes run 30β60 minutes depending on your plan. We recommend 3 classes per week for steady progress, though 2 per week is also effective for busy adults.
Recitation Practice Every Class
Every session includes applying the rules to real Quranic verses, not just theory. You practice on Surah Al-Mulk, Yasin, Ar-Rahman, and other frequently recited portions.
Progress Milestones
We track which rules have been mastered and which need more work. You receive a summary of your progress every month so you always know where you stand.
Homework and Self-Practice
After each class, you receive specific verses to practice before the next session. Consistent daily practice of even 10 minutes accelerates progress dramatically.
