One-to-One Quran Classes for Children, Online
Our Quran classes for kids in Singapore are live lessons on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams. It’s one child and one teacher for the whole class. The teacher hears every letter your child reads and corrects it on the spot, so mistakes don’t settle into habits. There’s no group to keep up with and no one to hide behind. In practice, it’s much like having a private Quran teacher at home, without the travel.
Children join from age 4 up to their teens. Some have never seen an Arabic letter. Others already read but stumble over longer words, need help with Tajweed, or want to memorise Juz Amma. The free classes show the teacher where your child is, and lessons start from there.
All lessons are taught in English. Many parents in Singapore call these mengaji or ngaji classes. That’s what they are: learning to read the Quran properly, a page at a time, without leaving the house after a long school day.
About 55 children study with us at the moment, and they make up most of our students.
What Your Child Will Learn
There’s a natural order to it. Letters come first, then reading, then memorising. Each step has its own page if you want the full details.
How long does it take? As a rough guide, at 5 days a week the Iqra books take at least 6 months. Reading the Quran fluently usually takes about another year after Iqra. With fewer days a week, each stage takes longer, and every child moves at their own speed. When your child is ready for a first khatam, our khatam Quran guide has a simple daily plan.
What a 30-Minute Class Looks Like for a Young Child
Each class has three parts: revision, a new lesson and a short dua.
- Revision. Your child reads back what they learnt last time. If a letter comes out wrong, the teacher stops and helps them say it again.
- The new lesson. The book is shared on screen. The teacher points to each letter or word and reads it, your child repeats it, then tries it alone.
- A dua. Most classes end with a short dua to learn by heart.
No 5-year-old reads for 30 minutes straight, and the teacher doesn’t try to make them. When a child starts to fidget or look away, the teacher pauses for something they’ll enjoy, often a short story from Islam, and then goes back to the page. The class keeps moving, and your child still looks forward to the next one.
Before the class ends, the teacher sets the next lesson to practise at home. If your child is still learning the letters, our free Arabic alphabet chart is an easy way to practise between classes.
Can a 4- or 5-year-old really learn online? Yes. Children can start at 4, and 5 is a good age. We recommend 30-minute classes, but shorter ones are fine for very young children. In the first few classes, it helps to stay close by while your child gets used to the screen and the teacher.
“My daughter is only 5 years old and takes online Iqra classes. She’s learning really well, and I’m happy with how much she has improved. The teacher is very patient and teaches her how to pronounce each letter correctly, explaining which letters to read with a heavy sound and which with a light sound. I really like that the teacher pays attention to even the smallest details. I’m glad my daughter can learn so well from the comfort of our home. The staff is also very professional and helpful. Overall, I’m really satisfied with the classes.”

How Our Teachers Teach Children
Some children come to us after a strict class made them dread Quran class. Our teachers correct mistakes calmly, notice what a child gets right and say so, and move at the child’s pace rather than the book’s.
Your child keeps the same teacher from one class to the next. Children relax once they know who they’ll see, and the teacher never has to guess where they stopped. If the match doesn’t feel right, tell us and we’ll find another teacher.
How we choose our teachers. Before anyone teaches with us, they:
- pass a test of their Quran recitation and Tajweed
- have at least 5 years of teaching experience
- complete one month of training with us
Once they start, we keep checking their classes. Every teacher is a Hafiz or Hafiza. You can meet our teachers or read more about our academy.
“My son used to go to a Quran institute, but he started losing interest because the teacher was too strict. So, I decided to try online Quran classes for him, and honestly, it was a good decision. He has improved a lot, and now he really enjoys his classes. The teacher is very polite, patient, and professional, and my son feels comfortable learning with him. I’m happy to see him taking an interest in learning the Quran again.”

Safety: What Parents Can See
You’ll naturally want to know who your child is learning with and what happens in class. Nothing is hidden from you.
- Sit in on any class, starting from the first free one.
- Classes are recorded so we can check the teaching. Girls’ recordings are reviewed only by female staff. The Privacy Policy explains how recordings are kept.
- Ask for a copy of your child’s recording whenever you like.
- Message us on WhatsApp with any question about a class.
Progress Reports, Tests and School Life
Once a month, your child does a short test with their teacher and you receive a progress report. It shows what they’ve covered and what’s coming next, so you’re never left guessing. Each time a child finishes a level, they get a certificate.
Quran class has to fit in with school, tuition and CCAs. When your week changes, the classes can change with it.
- Missed a class? Make it up on another day.
- PSLE or school exams coming up? Pause classes, or switch to revision only until the exams are over.
- School holidays or Ramadan? Move class days and times to fit your plans.
Fees for Kids’ Quran Classes
Fees are paid monthly and depend on how many days a week your child joins. There’s no registration fee.
Brothers and sisters who join get a sibling discount. The first 3 classes are free, and you don’t need to give any payment details to book them. See full fees, payment and refund details.
“I was a bit unsure about online Quran classes for my children at first because most kids in Singapore go to madrasahs or Islamic institutes, and the fees are quite high. But after starting online classes for my kids, I’m really happy with my decision. The teacher is very good and explains everything clearly, making sure the kids learn properly. The fees are also much more affordable compared to other institutes. I’m glad I gave online classes a try, and I’m really happy with the way my children are learning.”

Online Class, Mosque Class or Weekend Madrasah?
Each of these works for some children and not others. It mostly comes down to your child and your family’s week.
Online classes aren’t perfect for everyone. Your child needs a steady internet connection and a quiet spot at home. Very young children may need you nearby at first. A group class also lets children spend time with other Muslim children, which some families care about. Some parents do both: a weekend madrasah for Islamic studies, and an online class on weekdays for Quran reading.
How to Choose an Online Quran Class for Your Child
Before you sign up anywhere, ask these questions:
- Will my child have the same teacher every time? Children often slow down when the teacher keeps changing.
- What times are actually free in Singapore Time? Ask for real slots, not just “flexible”.
- How are teachers checked before they teach children?
- Can I watch the class?
- Is there a female teacher for my daughter?
- Are the monthly fees clear, with no sign-up fee?
- Can my child try a few classes before I pay?
You’re welcome to ask us any of these on WhatsApp.

Quran Classes for Kids: FAQs
At what age can my child start learning the Quran?
Children can start at 4, and 5 is a good age to begin. By then, most children can sit with a teacher for a short class and repeat letters back. If your child is younger, listening to short surahs at home is a good start until they’re ready.
How many classes a week should my child take?
You can choose 2, 3, 4 or 5 days a week. More days a week means faster progress. Many families start with whatever fits around school and add days later.
How long until my child can read the Quran?
At 5 days a week, the Iqra books usually take at least 6 months. After that, it takes about a year to read the Quran fluently. Fewer days a week means each stage takes longer.
Are the first classes really free?
Yes. The first 3 classes are free, and you don’t need to give payment details to book them.
Can I watch my child’s class?
Yes, any class. Classes are also recorded, and we’ll send you a copy of your child’s recording if you ask.
Can my daughter learn with a female teacher?
Yes. Girls always learn with female teachers, and all of them are Hafiza.
Do you teach children with special needs?
Yes. Our teachers teach children with special needs, including autism and ADHD. Please tell us about your child before the first class, so the teacher knows what helps them learn.
What happens during exams, school holidays or Ramadan?
During PSLE and school exams, you can pause classes or switch to revision only. In the school holidays or Ramadan, class days and times can be moved. Any missed class can be made up on another day.
My child isn’t keen on Quran class. How do you keep them interested without forcing them?
The teacher keeps the class short and varied, praises what your child gets right, and stops for a story when they get tired. Having the same teacher each time helps too, because children get to know them. Some children who were put off by a strict class have started to enjoy it again.
How can I help my child at home?
The teacher sets the next lesson to practise at home. A few minutes on most days does more than one long session at the weekend. Make sure your child joins on time from a quiet place, and listen to them read whenever you can.
Is this an online madrasah?
Not quite. A madrasah usually teaches a wider Islamic studies syllabus. Our classes focus on the Quran: reading, Tajweed and memorisation, with duas, seerah and stories of the prophets alongside.
What do we need for online classes?
A laptop, tablet or phone with Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, and a steady internet connection. The teacher shares the book on screen, so you don’t need to buy one.
