Someone who learned how to read The Quran many years ago and would like to review all the steps required to read Arabic to fill in any gaps and start your Quran journey again

By the end of this course you will have …
1. Learned Every Rule Needed to Read Arabic
Using my 7 Arabic Steps™ Method that is a simple and logical way to learn Arabic
2. Contentment and a Connection to Allah’s Words
By being able to enjoy another act of worship that weighs heavy on your scale of good deeds
3. More Confidence in Your Ability to Teach Others
Due to how proficient you will be in pronouncing Arabic letters and words
“Taking Nichole’s course was a literal life change for me.
I was scared to read the Quran because I was fearful of making mistakes and the wall of doubts that I had built for myself. However, Nichole helped me break down that wall with her sweet, gentle, soft-spoken and encouraging demeanor. She makes you feel so incredibly comfortable that you forget that you were once shy. I couldn’t read a line out loud because I was embarrassed, but after her course I could comfortably recite Surah Kahf with her and in front of others. Don’t hesitate even for a second if you’re thinking about taking her course. It’ll be one of the best decisions you make.”

Each week, Ustathah Nichole will be live 3 times to teach an Arabic lesson. These group classes are for added accountability, practice and to ask any questions.
You also have 8 one-on-one sessions with Ustathah Nichole or a RBR Team member.
Each session is 15 minutes long. You can easily book them (and reschedule) using the online booking. There are a lot of times to chose from to accommodate the various timezones.

Tuesdays at 2pm EST, Thursdays at 8pm EST, and Sundays at 8am EST. All times are Eastern Standard Time, Toronto.
Students only need to attend one class each week as the content is the exact same. The 3 timings are to accommodate the various time zones.
These classes are optional. Students can still learn how to read Arabic if they are unable to attend.
-
The first module will be release on Monday, December 15th, inshaAllah. Students will start booking their one-on-one sessions the following week.
-
Depending on your availability, you will have a 1-on-1 class with either Ustathah Nichole, who is the main Arabic and Quran teacher for the Reading by Ramadan program, or a Reading by Ramadan Team member who has been trained by Ustathah Nichole.
Two of the RBR Team members have an Ijazah in Tajweed and were students of Ustathah Nichole, the other RBR Team member is an International Quran Reciter.
-
The main recorded lessons are approximately 10-20 minutes. Your one-on-one lessons are 15 minutes long. The weekly group classes are 30-60 minutes. And the live group recitation classes during Ramadan are an hour.
-
No, the course material is dripped weekly. I want you to focus on one module at a time, and not feel overwhelmed by the amount of content you still need to learn. We will be taking small steps to make sure every lesson is mastered correctly before moving on.
I recommend booking your one-on-one lesson after you have studied the weekly content.
-
If you can prioritize 1-2 hours a week to learning how to read The Words of Allah, then this course is for you! The recorded lessons are short because many of us are busy with other responsibilities. Also, your one-on-one lessons are scheduled based on your availability. The more you practice, the better your reading flow will be.
-
No, everything is included in the course to get you reading Arabic. You can print the PDF guides, worksheets and practice pages, if you like.
If you don’t own a mushaf (all Arabic copy of The Quran), I highly recommend getting a physical copy. But this is not needed to succeed in the program.
-
The website payment processors are set up for payments in US dollars due to my global audience (the majority being in America).
-
Yes! A scholarship application will be available to those who signed up for the Reading by Ramadan waiting list.
If you would like to apply for a scholarship, please email salaam@arabicwithnichole.com.
-
This is NOT an in-depth Tajweed course. This course is a beginner’s Arabic course to learn how to pronounce and identify all the Arabic letters and the understand the rules of reading the language. We will cover some basic Tajweed that is required to read The Quran fluently.
If you struggle a lot to read The Quran, this course is also for you to properly learn the rules to recite with a smooth flow.
-
I, Ustathah Nichole, taught myself how to read Arabic almost 2 decades ago and have been teaching children and adults ever since. I have created the 7 Arabic Steps™ Method based on my proven method for teaching students how to read and write Arabic.
I also have an Ijazah (an Islamic Quran certification) in Tajweed (Hafs ‘an ‘Asim) under the guidance of Shaykhah Mariam Farid, co-founder of Wayh Al Quran.
I am also the co-founder of A Tajweed Journey, a comprehensive Quran program online. Through this, I have taught hundreds of women around the world the science of Quran recitation.
I have studied with many Arabic teachers who have also commented on the accuracy of my Arabic pronunciation.
(I have personally taught the Reading by Ramadan Team Members how to recite The Quran fluently and they are trained on how to teach others the Arabic language)
-
No, because this is a beginner’s Arabic course for those who do not know any Arabic or who have great difficulty reading The Quran.
Reading Arabic without any vowel marks is for advanced students who understand the language or have a strong grasp of Arabic grammar.

If you’re thinking, “This sounds amazing but I’m still not 100% sure,” keep reading…
You should give Reading by Ramadan a 30-day risk-free try if any of the following resonates with you:
01.
You are saddened or frustrated with not being able to read The Quran in the language chosen for the final revelation.
Your feelings are valid. We belong to Allah, and we will return to Him. There is a natural connection a believer has towards their Lord, which sparks a strong desire to read divine words. Translations are not enough to capture the miracle of The Quran and beauty of the Arabic language. Allah has put the desire in you to learn how to read His Book. That alone is a blessing. I promise you, it’s easier than you think to fulfill this spiritual void.
02.
You know that you have an hour a week to learn Arabic.
When people ask me, “How did you learn Arabic?” I will often reply with “Allah taught me,” because I was alone and had no teacher. I had complete faith, despite my isolation, that if I just put in the time and effort to learn how to read The Quran, that Allah would help me. And He did. I absolutely believe that if you are sincere in wanting to learn, and put effort into learning, that He subhna will do the same for you. And I am here to assist your Quran journey as well, so you don’t have to do it alone.
03.
You realize that there is no “perfect time” and waiting longer is not going to help you reach your goal.
How long have you been waiting for that “perfect moment”? And how much longer are you willing to wait for it? Life happens, it always will. Someone or something will need you. You need to take action and start prioritizing the things that matter to you. Out of 8 billion people in the world, you were guided to this opportunity. If there ever was a “right time,” it would be now.
Arabic is Easy …
This has become my motto after seeing sisters not even try to learn the language because of the repeated negative thoughts and belief that it’s too hard.
Even after learning Arabic all on my own after converting to Islam, I still believe Arabic is an easy language to learn - with a sincere intention, consistent effort and trust that The All-Capable will teach you.
There is no better book in the entire world for us to be reading and striving to understand than The Quran. My life and heart has forever been changed from being able to recite The Quran - and I want the same for all my Muslim sisters.
Ramadan is only a few months away. It is one of the best times of the year. The rewards are multiplied, and millions of Muslims are reciting Allah’s Words. You could easily be one of them.
You are more than capable of learning how to read Arabic.
My 7 Arabic Steps™ method is a simple and logical approach to language learning that will remove any difficulties you had while learning Arabic before, and will increase your confidence that you can do this. And lest you forget, I am here supporting you, every step of the way.
I can’t wait to meet you, teach you and hear you reciting The Quran this Ramadan.
InshaAllah,
Nichole
