Short answer: Lisanova Academy offers Quran recitation practice online in live one-to-one lessons. You recite aloud, a teacher who holds Ijazah in recitation and Tajweed listens, corrects your pronunciation and recitation in the moment, and sets what to practise next at your current reading level.
Who it is for
Learners who can read the Arabic script and want to recite the Quran correctly and smoothly, from those reading their first short surahs to experienced readers polishing their recitation. Children and adults are both welcome.
How a recitation lesson works
You recite a passage aloud while your teacher listens and follows the text. Mistakes are corrected in context, you repeat the word or verse until it is right, and the teacher then sets what to practise next.
Our Quran teachers hold authentic Ijazah (a certified chain of transmission) in Quran recitation and Tajweed. They are qualified native Arabic speakers with extensive experience teaching Quran memorization, pronunciation and Tajweed rules to non-Arabic speakers.
What feedback you receive
Your teacher focuses on the corrections that will improve your recitation most, rather than everything at once.
| Area | What the teacher listens for |
|---|---|
| Articulation (makharij) | Each letter produced from its correct place, especially letters that do not exist in your own language |
| Vowels and length | Short vowels kept short, long vowels and madd held for the right length |
| Nasalisation (ghunnah) | Nasal sounds held where the rules require them |
| Stopping and starting | Pausing at suitable places and resuming correctly |
| Flow | A steady, calm pace without rushing or breaking words |
Practising between lessons
Short daily practice helps more than one long session a week.
- Recite the passage your teacher set for a few minutes each day.
- Record yourself and listen back for the points your teacher corrected.
- Note any word you are unsure of and ask about it at the start of the next lesson.
Recitation, Tajweed and memorization: what is the difference?
Recitation is reading the Quran aloud correctly. Tajweed is the set of rules that refine how it is recited. Memorization (Hifz) is learning passages by heart. The three support each other, and your teacher combines them according to your level — you do not have to choose only one.
