Why you stopped before

You need a path.

Most beginners are handed an alphabet chart, an app, or random exercises. Then they are expected to stay consistent without knowing what progress should look like.

Before

“I don't know where to start.”

With coaching

I know what comes next.

Your reading path

Zero to reading.

Ten live sessions. One clear finish line.

SESSION 01

ا ب ت

See the sounds

Recognise letters by sound and form, without depending on memorised order.

SESSION 05

كَتَبَ

Build the words

Connect letters, vowels, and reading rules until words stop looking like symbols.

SESSION 10

اِقْرَأْ

Open and read

Open the Qur'an at any page and read comfortably, then keep building fluency.

RESULT Open the Qur'an at any page & start reading.

You will be reading, not yet completely fluent or fast. Tajweed mastery, translation, and spoken Arabic are separate journeys.

More than lessons

Coached at every step.

A course gives you information. Coaching makes sure you can use it.

Live correction

I listen while you read, catch the exact point that is slowing you down, and help you correct it immediately.

02

A plan around you

Your practice is based on your gaps, not a generic classroom pace.

03

Accountability

Every session has a clear target. I check your progress and keep you moving.

04

Support between sessions

Questions and voice notes do not have to wait for the next call. You get guidance while the practice is still fresh.

How it works

Three steps.

Simple enough to begin. Structured enough to finish.

Your coach

Clear. Personal. Honest.

I am a native Arabic speaker, certified teacher, and polyglot. For more than seven years, I have helped learners turn confusing subjects into clear systems they can actually follow.

Arabic is not learned by collecting more material. It is learned by seeing the right thing, practising it correctly, and getting feedback before frustration takes over. That is the work we do together.

Before you book

Questions.

If yours is not here, bring it to the fit call.

01What is Arabic coaching?

Arabic coaching means I walk the path with you one-to-one—from where you are now until you can read independently. Your sessions, practice plan, corrections, and pace are personalised, and you can reach me by chat or voice note between sessions when you get stuck.

Arabic teaching usually focuses on explaining material during a lesson. Coaching includes teaching, but goes further: we apply it to your reading, track your progress, adjust the plan, and keep you moving towards a defined finish line.

02Is this only for Muslim men?

Yes. The coaching is designed exclusively for Muslim men who want to learn to read the Qur'an in Arabic.

03Can I join if I cannot read a single letter?

Yes. This is built for complete beginners. You do not need prior Arabic knowledge.

04What can I do after session ten?

With attendance and consistent practice, you can open the Qur'an at any page and read comfortably. You will not yet read completely fluently or at full speed, but you will have a working foundation and know how to keep improving.

05Are the ten sessions on consecutive days?

They can be. Choose an intensive in ten consecutive coaching days, or a steadier schedule such as two sessions per week across five weeks.

06How much time should I expect to invest?

Each live session lasts one hour. At minimum, plan for about one additional hour of practice per session. Some students benefit from one hour before and one hour after, putting the complete journey between roughly 20 and 40 hours.

07How is this different from the free Sprint?

The Arabic Starter Sprint gives you ten self-paced YouTube lessons for free. Coaching adds ten private live sessions, direct correction, a plan around your gaps, accountability, practice guidance, and support between sessions.

08Why not simply hire a private teacher?

A private teacher may explain the material. As your coach, I also plan the work with you, check your progress, correct your reading, answer questions between sessions, and keep you moving through a defined path.

09Is the coaching in English or Dutch?

Both are available. You can complete the coaching in English or Dutch.

10What is included in the €497?

All ten private live sessions, your personal practice plan, direct corrections, progress guidance, and between-session questions and voice-note support.
