One-on-one Arabic and Quran classes for expat kids, taught live by fluent English-speaking teachers.
Around 85–89% of Dubai's population is made up of expatriates, and most expat children attend British, American, or IB-curriculum schools where English, not Arabic, is the language of instruction. That leaves plenty of families wanting to teach their kids Arabic and Quran at home, but without a teacher who can explain concepts the way their child's school already does.
Al-Buraq Academy was built for exactly this: non-Arab, English-medium-schooled children who need Arabic and Quran taught in the language they already learn in every day.
Every teacher communicates comfortably in English, so your child never feels lost in a lesson taught in a language they don't yet speak.
Background-checked teachers, monitored sessions, and a direct reporting line — read our full child safety policy before you book.
Lessons are scheduled around Gulf Standard Time, with afternoon, evening, and weekend slots for Dubai and Abu Dhabi families.

Yes. No payment details are required to book it — you meet the teacher, see how your child responds, and only enroll if it's the right fit.
That's the normal starting point. Our teachers are trained to teach Arabic and Quran to non-Arabic-speaking children from zero, in English.
Al-Buraq Academy also teaches children in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other expat communities.
