Quran and Arabic Teacher Jobs in MataramIn Ampenan, Cakranegara and Sekarbela, teachers remain few
Pulau Seribu Masjid is the name Mataram is known by, and in this city Arabi's own teachers remain few whichever subject you look at, from tahfidz to calligraphy. Nothing here is already well staffed. If you live in Sekarbela, Cakranegara, Ampenan, Selaparang or Sandubaya and teach your subject well, the roles below are open to your application.
What Arabi teachers do in Mataram
- Teach private lessons to a single student at a time, visiting homes in the parts of Mataram you can reach, such as Cakranegara, Selaparang or Sekarbela.
- Teach online through Arabi App when a student lives too far from you, so distance between Ampenan and Sandubaya does not stop a lesson.
- Agree a regular schedule directly with each student or their family, then keep to it and give notice early if a session has to move.
- Follow the Arabi Method you were trained in, adjusting the pace for a child, a teenager or an adult while keeping the technical content of your field exact.
- Keep track of what each student has covered, whether that is an iqra page, a setoran, a point of nahwu or a line of khat Naskhi, and begin the next lesson from there.
Who should apply in Mataram
- A teacher whose strongest subject is any that Mataram is short of, which at present means all of them, from tahsin and tahfidz to Arabic and calligraphy.
- Someone whose home is in Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Ampenan, Cakranegara, Selaparang or Mataram district, or near enough to reach a lesson in Pagesangan, Monjok or Dasan Agung.
- A graduate of UIN Mataram or of another place of study, or someone whose command of the subject shows as soon as a Karang Baru student asks a hard question.
- Someone who has already taught in Mataram or elsewhere, whether to a class or a neighbour's child, and who enjoys working closely with an individual learner in Pejanggik or Kekalik Jaya.
- A teacher who accepts Arabi Method training ahead of the opening lesson, and who is ready to use Arabi App when a student in Cakranegara cannot be visited from a home in Ampenan.
Teaching roles needed in Mataram
-
Quran Recitation Teacher
Few teachers so farBeginners of any age in Selaparang or Cakranegara, some still learning the hijaiyah letters, are who you meet in this role. Mataram's recitation teachers at Arabi remain few, so a patient guide through iqra is welcome here.
-
Quran Memorisation (Tahfidz) Teacher
Few teachers so farA memoriser in Sekarbela or Ampenan, child or adult, comes to you with a fresh setoran and older portions due for murajaah. Tahfidz sits on Mataram's short list, and Arabi has few people in the city to hear them.
-
Quran Reading Improvement (Tahsin) Teacher
Few teachers so farReaders in Pagesangan or Monjok who already get through a page, yet know their makhraj slips, are the students of tahsin. In Mataram this field is thinly staffed at Arabi, and your ear for tajwid fills a real gap.
-
Arabic Language Teacher
Few teachers so farStudents in Mataram district or Sandubaya who want to speak Arabic, or to work through nahwu and shorof, would sit with you. Arabic is counted among the fields where Arabi's Mataram roster is thin, so the role stays open.
-
Arabic Calligraphy (Khat) Teacher
Few teachers so farA newcomer to the pen in Karang Baru or Pejanggik, curious about khat Naskhi, is the student this role is for. Calligraphy is taught by few Arabi teachers anywhere in Mataram, Ampenan and Selaparang included, which leaves the role open.
-
Islamic Studies Teacher
Few teachers so farA teenager in Dasan Agung or an adult in Kekalik Jaya with questions on akidah akhlak or fiqh is the student you would meet. Islamic studies, like every field on Mataram's record, has few Arabi teachers so far.

A city where every subject is still short of teachers
There is no subject in Mataram where Arabi already has many teachers. Quran recitation, tahfidz, tahsin, Arabic, calligraphy and Islamic studies all sit on the short list. For you, that keeps the application simple: apply in the field you know well and say so plainly. If you are also strong in another field, for example recitation and tahsin, or Arabic and Islamic studies, tell us that too, because each of them is open here. The teachers Arabi does have mostly live in Mataram, Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Ampenan, Cakranegara and Selaparang, so applicants from those districts join colleagues nearby. Online lessons through Arabi App let you teach beyond your own neighbourhood. Pay is per session taught, and the schedule is agreed between you and each student.
Teaching areas in Mataram
The Arabi teachers already in the city mostly live in Mataram, Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Ampenan, Cakranegara and Selaparang. If your home is in any of these districts, you are well placed for home lessons close by. The neighbourhoods this page covers also include Pagesangan, Karang Baru, Pejanggik, Kekalik Jaya, Dasan Agung and Monjok, and teachers are few across all of them. When you apply, tell us which of these areas you can travel to comfortably. Lessons that are too far to visit can be taught online through Arabi App, so a teacher in Ampenan can still work with a student on the Sandubaya side.

Teaching at home in Pulau Seribu Masjid
Pulau Seribu Masjid is what people call this city, and UIN Mataram is a campus that Arabi's teachers here have graduated from. Each is named as background to the work, and Arabi runs its lessons independently of them. The teachers themselves are spread over the districts of Mataram, Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Ampenan, Cakranegara and Selaparang, and none of the fields they cover has many of them yet. Lessons can take place in those districts and in neighbourhoods such as Pagesangan, Karang Baru, Pejanggik, Kekalik Jaya, Dasan Agung and Monjok, for instance with a child in Monjok beginning iqra, a teenager in Pejanggik, or a grown-up in Kekalik Jaya coming back to tajwid. If you studied at UIN Mataram, or learned your subject somewhere else and live in any of these places, this is the setting you would teach in.
Quran Lessons Around Ampenan and Monjok in Mataram
In Mataram, on the island known as Pulau Seribu Masjid, the people you would teach for Arabi span every stage of life. Some are small children just learning to tell one hijaiyah letter from another, some are teenagers juggling school with a wish to read and understand more, and some are adults who have decided that this is finally their season to learn. Each studies one to one, so every lesson bends to that single learner.
A child in Ampenan or Monjok usually needs patience above all: short, cheerful stretches of practice, letters repeated until they feel familiar, and praise spoken aloud for every bit of progress. Closing each Ampenan or Monjok lesson by naming the letter the child mastered that day lets the next visit open on firm ground.
Teenagers in Sekarbela, Pagesangan or Dasan Agung tend to want direction. A teenager might be polishing tajwid (the rules for reciting the Quran correctly), building Arabic vocabulary, or working through the basics of fiqh of worship before an exam at school. Clear goals for each week help them, and so does having their questions taken seriously.
Adult learners in Cakranegara, Selaparang or Karang Baru often arrive with a specific hope: to recite with confidence in their own prayers, to start memorising a few surahs, to read an Arabic text, or to try khat, Arabic handwriting as an art, as a calm discipline. Honouring their pace and their busy days matters to them. Some prefer meeting at home, and others are happiest on Arabi App, so an ustadz or ustadzah in Mataram can reach learners across the city in the way each one prefers.

Home Visits in Mataram's Sekarbela and Sandubaya
A teaching week with Arabi in Mataram is shaped by where you live and by the hours you can honestly give. Arabi teachers here are mostly based in Mataram district, Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Ampenan, Cakranegara and Selaparang, so you might begin with learners close to home and then add sessions in neighbourhoods such as Pejanggik or Kekalik Jaya as your rhythm settles.
Part of the week is spent in learners' homes and the remainder on Arabi App. A teacher based in Sandubaya might visit a learner nearby in the late afternoon, then open an online lesson in the evening with someone in Ampenan. Each learner and you agree on the schedule together, and each lesson delivered earns its own payment, so how full the week becomes is up to you.
Quiet work fills the gaps between lessons. You prepare the next lesson, whether that means a page of iqra, a set of Arabic verbs, a proportion exercise in khat Naskhi, or a short topic in Islamic history. After each meeting you jot down which parts landed and which need revisiting, so the next lesson continues from that point.
Mataram is short of teachers across the board, in calligraphy and tahsin (refining recitation), in tahfidz (Quran memorisation), and in Islamic studies, Arabic and Quran recitation. That means a new ustadz or ustadzah here has room to grow, whatever the field. Graduates of UIN Mataram are already among Arabi's local teachers, and the network is still being built, so those who join now help shape how Islamic learning at home looks across these neighbourhoods.
Questions from teacher applicants in Mataram
Is there any subject in Mataram that Arabi already has plenty of teachers for?
None on record. Mataram has no field listed as having many Arabi teachers, and calligraphy, Arabic, Islamic studies, tahsin, tahfidz and recitation are each marked as still few. So an application in your strongest subject is useful here whichever it is. If another subject is also within your ability, name it when you apply, since that field is short in Mataram as well.
My home is in Ampenan. Can I teach from there?
Yes. Ampenan appears on the list of districts that Arabi's Mataram teachers mostly call home, next to Sandubaya, Sekarbela, Cakranegara, Selaparang and Mataram district itself. From Ampenan you would take home lessons in whichever neighbourhoods you can get to, and Arabi App handles students who are further off. On the form, write down which of the listed areas, Pagesangan and Monjok among them, are realistic for you, so matching starts from there.
Does it matter that I did not study at UIN Mataram?
It does not. UIN Mataram is the campus named on Arabi's record of where its teachers in Mataram graduated, and it is given here as background. Arabi is independent of the campus and has no arrangement with it. A degree from elsewhere serves equally well, as does long practice in teaching your subject in Selaparang, Sekarbela or any other district. Your command of the subject and how clearly you explain it decide the matter.
How am I paid for lessons in Mataram, and how full will my week be?
Payment follows the sessions you actually teach, and the amount is left off this page. Nobody at Arabi can tell you in advance how many learners in Mataram will come your way, so please treat that as open. Your week is shaped by the hours you offer and the areas you list, whether home visits around Pagesangan and Monjok or lessons on Arabi App, with each timetable settled between you and the learner.
What comes after I send my application from Mataram?
Accepted applicants go through Arabi Method training before any lesson. With teachers few in every Mataram field, that training matters for whichever subject you chose. After it, Arabi looks for a student who suits your subject and your areas, perhaps in Cakranegara or Sandubaya, or a student who learns on Arabi App. Days and hours are then fixed by you and that student directly. How soon a match comes is something we leave unpromised.
