– To enable adults (regardless of age) to be able to recite Quran properly especially for those who have been reading Quran for many years but not had the correct initial tajweed training
– To enable our revert brothers and sisters to recite Quran
– To focus on the quality of the reading of Quran
– To enable users to be more confident when reading Quran and ensuring they are reading Quran in the correct manner
What makes us different?
At HQT, we want to bring a fresh approach to teaching Quran. We believe that the foundations are fundamental, therefore, we focus fully on making sure the correct pronunciation (tajweed) is achieved fully, before advancing further. All our British tutors have been through rigorous Quran training, and many of them hold additional academic qualifications, as well as, experience of teaching Quran in their respective localities.
For us at HQT, quality speaks over quantity, hence, each lesson we provide will focus on key fundamentals and, there will be clear study plans and feedback from our team. We work with you to achieve your Quran goals and our lessons will be tailored to meet your individual needs.
We strive to achieve excellence in all that we do and that is clearly embedded within the HQT culture. Alongside this, we use modern learning techniques to keep our lesson engaging and effective, as well as in the 21st century!
