This course introduces adult students to the main rules of Qur'anic recitation.  Students will cover the correct pronunciation of the letters, as well as technical rules such as the stretching and merging of sounds.  

All sessions include time for explanation of the rules as well as practice reciting.  The class is taught over two semesters and is appropriate for men and women who already know how to read Arabic script, but have not studied the rules specific to Qur'anic recitation.  All students will need a working webcam and microphone to participate in the sessions. 

Class Limit: 16 students
