The Arabi curriculum is arranged in six levels, from A1 at the very beginning to C2 at the most advanced, for Quran recitation, memorization, Arabic, calligraphy, and Islamic studies. Each level has a clear, measurable target, with a transparent per-session price that is the same for every city.
The Arabi curriculum is a leveled course of study from A1 to C2, from beginner to advanced, used across every program: Quran recitation, memorization, Arabic, calligraphy, and Islamic studies. Each level has a clear ability target, and students move to the next level only after they are truly ready.

Skilled and fluent
Ready to create
The content of each level adapts to the program you take. The A1 to C2 framework keeps the direction of learning the same, from beginner to advanced.
Curriculum by Discipline
The Learning Path of Each Core Discipline
The same level framework flows into each discipline with its own stages and outcome. This is the map of learning from start to mastery.
Quran Recitation
Six gradual books
Reading the Quran from zero to fluent, from the mushaf.
1Introducing the hijaiyah letters
2Connected letters
3Vowels and long sounds
4Tanwin and sukun
5Basic and advanced tajwid
6Recitation from the mushaf
Outcome
Read the Quran directly from the mushaf with correct tajwid and fluent recitation.
Each discipline grows with the student. Advanced levels open gradually as readiness develops, guided by Arabi's teachers.
Anatomy of the Material
What Lives Inside Each Level's Material
Arabi's learning material is built from fixed parts, so each level is whole and well directed. This is the Arabi method made visible on the page.
01
Introduction and Goals
Each module opens with a preface, a study guide, and the level's goals, so the direction of learning is clear from the first page.
02
Map of Articulation
A diagram of where each letter is articulated appears from the start, so the way to pronounce each letter is correct from the first time it is learned.
03
Material and Practice Paired
Each part of the material is immediately followed by its worksheet, so what is newly learned is settled at once through reading and writing.
04
Telling Similar Letters Apart
A dedicated page trains telling apart letters that are easily confused, like sin and syin or dal and dzal, complete with its test.
05
Words from the Mushaf
Example words are taken from the Quran as they are, matching the level already mastered, so what is practiced is truly used when reading the Quran.
06
A Window to the Mushaf
Snippets of real verses appear as a bridge, bringing the student closer to reading the actual mushaf.
07
Munaqasyah (Level Exam)
At the end of each level there is a preparation drill, then the munaqasyah exam. Students advance after passing, judged on fluency, accuracy, and correct articulation.
08
Achievement Card and Advancement
Results are recorded on an achievement card, then the student steps to the next level. Progress is clearly seen and documented.
Arabic text and example words are taken from the mushaf as they are, written with correct vowels and the proper right-to-left direction.
Curriculum Principles
What Keeps the Curriculum Correct
These five principles keep each level standing firm and each recitation growing correctly from its roots.
01
Advance After Mastery
Students move up only after truly mastering a level, through the munaqasyah assessment. Each stage stands firmly on the one before it.
02
Articulation from the Start
Pronouncing letters correctly is taught from the very first letter, so recitation grows correct from its roots.
03
Grounded in the Mushaf
Examples and practice are taken from the Quran as it is, so what is learned is truly used when reading the Book of Allah.
04
Practice That Grows
The higher the level, the longer the practice and the closer it comes to whole reading, from single letters to words and verses of the mushaf.
05
Guidance with a Teacher's Heart
Every stage is accompanied by teachers who teach with heart, correct directly, and encourage.
Why Levels
Learning Step by Step Makes Progress Feel Real
Learning arranged in levels makes the journey feel clear. You know where you stand now, what you are mastering, and what step awaits next. This clarity keeps motivation alive and makes progress feel real.
At Arabi, advancing a level is a matter of readiness. You move to the next level after you have truly mastered the current one, so every stage stands firmly on the one before it.
Because learning is private and one on one, the pace of climbing the levels matches your ability. Harder parts are given more time, parts already mastered are covered more briefly, so no time is wasted.
In the end, the levels are simply a map. What moves your steps forward is the patient guidance of a teacher and the Arabi method that keeps each stage correct and meaningful, until you reach the level you aim for.
Child Readiness

School-Age Children and Teens
An initial assessment decides starting at A1 or continuing
Choose recitation, memorization, or Arabic by interest
A schedule that fits around school activities
Advancing levels as ability grows
Adults and Parents
You can start from zero without hesitation, at a fitting level
Private learning makes the setting comfortable and focused
Available in person at home or online through the Arabi app

Comparison
A Leveled Curriculum Compared with Other Ways
An honest comparison, so you can choose clearly. Each way has its place; here is what Arabi offers.
Aspect

Progress
Leveled A1 to C2 with clear targets, advancing after passing munaqasyah
Following a shared class, each child's progress is hard to measure
Hard to know whether you are correct without a benchmark
Recitation (tajwid)
Makhraj and tajwid corrected from the first letter, heard directly
Depends on the teacher's attention in a crowded class
Prone to mispronunciations that settle in without correction
Attention
Private, one on one, material adjusted to your ability
One teacher for many students at once
Without guidance, it is easy to stop midway
Material
Structured modules, examples from the mushaf as they are, an achievement card
Depends on whichever book is used
Varied sources, often not in order
Cost
Transparent per session, the same for every city, with thrifty packages
Varies from place to place
Inexpensive, yet progress depends on personal discipline
Pricing
Transparent Learning Costs
One session is 60 minutes. The fee per session follows the level, from A1 (basic) to C2 (advanced), and is the same for all cities. Learn privately at home or online. Larger session packages are more economical.
Levels A1 to C2 are the stages of learning from beginner to advanced used across every Arabi program. A1 is an introduction from zero, and C2 is the advanced level. Each level has a clear, measurable ability target.
What makes the Arabi curriculum different?
The Arabi curriculum uses the systematic Arabi method: the way to pronounce letters (makhraj) is taught from the first letter, example words are taken from the Quran as they are, and students advance only after passing the munaqasyah exam. Each stage stands firmly on the one before it.
Is the child tested before advancing a level?
Yes. At the end of each level there is an exam called munaqasyah. The child advances to the next level after passing, judged on fluency, speed, accuracy, and correct articulation of the recitation. The result is recorded on an achievement card.
How do I know which level to start from?
The teacher assesses your starting ability in the first session, then places you at the most suitable level. You can start from A1 if truly from zero, or continue from a fitting level if you already have a foundation.
How long does it take to move up a level?
The time differs for each person, depending on starting ability and how regularly you practice. Because lessons are private and one on one, you advance once you are truly ready, so each level's foundation stays strong.
Is the price the same for every city?
Yes. The per-session price at Arabi is the same for every city, for both in-person and online learning. What changes the cost is only the level and the type of package you choose. Your location does not affect the price.
Are there more affordable packages?
Yes. Packages with more sessions are available, and their per-session cost is lower than single sessions. Our team helps you choose the package that best fits your needs and schedule during the consultation.
Does one level apply across all programs?
The A1 to C2 level system is used as a framework across every program, from recitation and Arabic to calligraphy and Islamic studies. The content of each level is adapted to the program you take.
How long is one learning session?
One learning session at Arabi lasts 60 minutes, fully dedicated to you because it is private and one on one. The number of sessions per week can be adjusted to your schedule and learning target.
Can I switch programs but stay at the same level?
Yes, with some adjustment. The level reflects your general ability, while each program has its own particular material. When you switch programs, the teacher reassesses and places you at the most fitting point in the new program.
Is this the same as formal school grades?
Not necessarily. Levels A1 to C2 are Arabi's internal map of ability that measures mastery of the material, from beginner to advanced. This system stands on its own and adapts to each student's progress, regardless of their school grade.
