Private live Quran lessons for children and adults in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and across Australia, scheduled in your state's time zone.
Lessons scheduled in your state's time
Australia has three main time zones, and daylight saving applies in some states but not others. New South Wales, Victoria, the ACT, Tasmania and South Australia move their clocks forward in early October and back in early April. Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia stay on standard time all year. The gap between cities therefore changes twice a year: Perth is two hours behind Sydney in winter and three hours behind during daylight saving. Your lesson stays at the same local time wherever you live.
| City | Time zone | Daylight saving? |
|---|---|---|
| Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Hobart | AEST (UTC+10) / AEDT (UTC+11) | Yes, October to April |
| Brisbane | AEST (UTC+10) | No |
| Adelaide | ACST (UTC+9:30) / ACDT (UTC+10:30) | Yes, October to April |
| Darwin | ACST (UTC+9:30) | No |
| Perth | AWST (UTC+8) | No |
Families most often choose the hours after school, roughly 3:30 pm to 7:30 pm on weekdays, or a weekend morning. Slots are confirmed when you book your free trial. In winter the sun sets around 5 pm in the south-eastern states, so an after-school lesson can run into Maghrib; in summer the evenings are long and there is more room.
Why Australian families choose one-to-one online classes
- Distance does not matter. A regional town, a new outer suburb or a city far from a masjid: all the lesson needs is a screen and a steady connection.
- The teacher's full attention. Weekend Islamic school classes can be large, while a private lesson is entirely about your child.
- Little and often. Short lessons through the week keep recitation fresh, rather than one long session on a Saturday or Sunday.
- Female teachers. Available for girls, young children and sisters.
Working around the Australian school year
The school year has four terms, from late January to December, with short breaks between terms. Term dates differ from state to state, so tell us yours. The long summer holidays over December and January suit a focused project, and some students use them to memorise Juz Amma or selected surahs. Students sitting final-year exams in Term 4 can ask us to lighten the load for a few weeks.
Learning for the whole family
Children often begin with Noorani Qaida or our kids' programme. Parents frequently take Tajweed or Quran with translation later in the evening, once the household has settled. Each family member can have a separate teacher and time.

FAQ
Questions from families in Australia
What time are classes for students in Perth?
Perth lessons are scheduled in AWST (UTC+8). Families there usually choose an after-school slot between 3:30 pm and 7 pm, or a weekend morning.
Does daylight saving affect my lesson time?
No. Your lesson keeps the same local time. Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Hobart and Adelaide change their clocks in October and April, while Brisbane, Darwin and Perth do not, and we adjust our schedule to match.
We live in a regional town. Can we still learn?
Yes. Lessons are live online, so you only need a phone, tablet or computer and a steady internet connection.
Can lessons continue over the summer holidays?
Yes. Many families keep going through December and January, and some use the break for a focused memorisation goal. If you travel, tell us and we will confirm the time for where you will be.
Do you teach adults in Australia?
Yes. Adults can learn from the very beginning or improve their recitation, in private lessons at a time that suits them.
Can I pay in Australian dollars?
Fees are set in US dollars. You can pay with an Australian card or account and your bank converts the amount.
