Teach with Arabi, and grow a Quran-centred generation

Arabi opens opportunities for ustadz and ustadzah across Indonesia to guide students from children to adults in Quran recitation, tahfidz, Arabic, calligraphy, and Islamic studies. You teach with the Arabi method, a flexible schedule, and fair pay.

A Teaching Opportunity

Teach at Arabi, and help grow a Quran-centred generation

The need for skilled Quran and Arabic teachers keeps growing across Indonesia. Many Muslim parents want their children to read the Quran with correct tajwid, memorise it with a method that lasts, and understand Arabic from an early age. Arabi answers this need with a structured method, and for that it opens the door to ustadz and ustadzah who want to teach with sincerity.

As an Arabi teacher, you teach with the Arabi method, already arranged neatly, complete with leveled materials and ready teaching guides. You guide students of every age, from a child meeting the hijaiyah letters to an adult who wants to deepen their reading and the language of the Quran. Every new teacher is trained first, so you step forward with confidence.

Teaching the Quran and Islamic knowledge is a role that carries value and grows long-lasting good. Alongside Arabi’s network of thousands of teachers in many cities, you become part of each student’s journey to know, love, and understand their faith correctly.

Teaching Fields

The fields you can teach at Arabi

Arabi opens teaching opportunities across six Islamic education disciplines. Choose the field that best fits your expertise.

Quran Recitation

Guiding students to read the Quran, from recognising the hijaiyah letters and iqra to fluent reading with correct tajwid. A fit if you read fluently and patiently guide from the basics.

Tahfidz

Guiding students to memorise the Quran with talqin, gradual recitation, and regular murajaah so memorisation is firm and mutqin. A fit if you understand how to protect memorisation.

Tahsin

Refining the reading of students who can already read, from correcting the makhraj to applying tajwid rules, so reading becomes more measured. A fit if you read fluently and carefully.

Arabic Language

Teaching Arabic from conversation and vocabulary to the rules of nahwu and shorof, opening the door to the Quran and classical books. A fit if you have a command of Arabic.

Arabic Calligraphy

Guiding students to write Arabic beautifully with khat rules such as Naskhi and Riqah, from letter proportion to neat work. A fit if you pursue the art of khat.

Islamic Studies

Teaching the basics of creed, character, fiqh, and hadith with adab and references that can be relied upon. A fit if you understand Islamic knowledge and respect the diversity of schools.

Choosing the Role That Fits What You Know

Every role at Arabi is named after what you teach, so the easiest way to choose is to ask yourself a few honest questions: which field do you know well, and what kind of lesson keeps you glad to teach week after week? If you enjoy guiding someone from the very beginning, Quran recitation may suit you. Here learners meet the hijaiyah letters (the Arabic alphabet), harakat (vowel marks), iqra primers, makhraj (the point where each letter is pronounced) and basic tajwid (the rules of correct recitation), until they read in tartil, a calm and measured pace.

If you have a careful ear and like polishing a reading, tahsin could be your place. These learners can already read; they come to refine makhraj, the sifat or qualities of each letter, tajwid rules and tartil. Tahfidz suits patient teachers who walk beside a memoriser through talqin (you recite, the learner repeats), setoran (new verses recited back to you) and murajaah, regular review that keeps earlier memorisation firm.

Comfortable with grammar and conversation? Arabic language lessons cover speaking, vocabulary, nahwu (sentence grammar), shorof (how word forms change) and reading Arabic texts. A trained hand in Naskhi and Riqah script can teach beginner calligraphy, paying close attention to letter proportion. Islamic studies welcomes those at ease explaining akidah akhlak (belief and character), the fiqh of worship and Islamic history. Learners here range from teenagers curious about their prayers to adults who want to revisit what they learned long ago.

You may hold several fields at once, as long as you are genuinely skilled in each of them. A gentle way to begin is with the field you know most deeply, then add another once your teaching rhythm feels settled. Campus and university graduates are welcome to apply, and whatever teaching experience you bring is valued. There is no rush.

Why Arabi

Joining Arabi

An Arabi method to be proud of

You teach with Arabi’s structured method, from reading with correct tajwid to orderly Arabic, that helps students truly understand.

Training from the start

Every new teacher is trained before teaching. Materials and teaching guides are provided, so you focus on the students.

Flexible schedule

Choose home tutoring, online, or both. Set your hours to fit your availability.

Teaching with the value of worship

You plant the knowledge of the Quran and Islam in students of every age, a role that carries value and brings barakah.

Teach From Your Own City or From Anywhere

Arabi has city pages for dozens of cities, from Medan and Padang in the west to Ambon, Sorong and Jayapura in the east. In those cities, teachers can visit the learner at home, so every lesson stays personal and focused: a teacher and a learner, face to face. If your city is not on the list yet, you can still teach online through Arabi App, sitting with a single learner from any quiet room you choose.

The schedule is something you and your learner agree on together, and you decide how many hours you want to teach. That makes the work easy to fit around a day job, university classes or life at home. You might teach in the evenings after work, or keep weekends for lessons while you study. Learners vary as well: children, teenagers and adults who want to learn for themselves. A steady rhythm like this helps you stay consistent without feeling stretched.

You never have to search for learners. Arabi finds them and matches them with you. Getting started is simple: fill in a short form on the apply page, receive an email with a link to complete your teaching profile, then the Arabi team contacts you for Arabi Method training. That training happens before you teach, and teaching materials and guides are provided, so you walk into your opening session well prepared. After that, a learner is matched with you. Your part is to prepare each lesson and keep the learner encouraged.

Pay is counted per session taught. Amounts are not listed on this page. Your fees can be withdrawn at any time from the teacher app, and the opening withdrawal of each month is free of charge. That leaves your attention where it belongs: guiding each learner until their reading and understanding grow.
