Education is not just about transferring information; it is about understanding how the student receives it. There are some traits you would always like your tutor to have when you start looking for an online Quran teacher, and emotional intelligence is at the top of the list. You would undoubtedly want your online teacher to be nearly ideal if you were ready to pay for the expense of the online Quran classes. We are aware that there are several types of students—visual, auditory, kinesthetic—and that each one learns in a different way. Due to this, our Online Quran Tutors use various teaching strategies for students of all ages to ensure that they are able to learn as much as possible according to their unique psychological profile.
Confidence: Inspiring the Student
Tutors must also possess unshakeable confidence in addition to patience and a grasp of the subject. They must convey awareness of what they are doing through their body language and tone of voice. Online Quran tutors must be able to assess their students psychologically and discuss a range of issues with them openly. The student frequently avoids speaking with the tutor directly due to shyness or fear of judgment. The tutor must have the self-assurance to approach the pupil and ask him key questions at this point. The pupils must be inspired and reminded to study hard by the online Quran tutors. It is crucial to motivate the pupils and urge them to put in more effort if they want to reach the desired outcome of Hifz or fluent reading.
Subject Matter Expert: Depth and Breadth
Regarding the characteristics of the online Quran teacher, subject knowledge is a crucial component, but knowing how to teach it is equally important. Without having a thorough understanding of the Holy Quran, one cannot instruct, but without understanding pedagogy, one cannot reach the student. The tutors for the online Quran classes must be experts in the subject they are teaching. When educating different age groups, the subject may call for a distinct method of instruction—gamification for kids, and analytical breakdown for adults. The methods of instruction vary depending on the age group and the psychological needs of the student.
Be Patient: The Key to overcoming Anxiety
Teaching the Quran online is a challenging job because you cannot physically guide the student. It is beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is a difficult task. The best online Quran teachers must have a great deal of patience to ease the student's anxiety. The teacher may need to repeat all of the lessons several times until the pupil is happy. But in addition to work, this calls for a lot of patience. A excellent online Quran tutor ought to have the appropriate level of empathy for the students. This means that effective tutors will be aware of the age group they are working with and will therefore adopt a teaching style that will aid in student comprehension and reduce stress.
Holy Prophet (PBUH) as a Teacher
The psychology of the Prophet (PBUH) was one of encouragement. Although the Holy Prophet (PBUH) was uneducated and illiterate, he yet managed to teach Islam to countless numbers of Muslims by understanding their hearts. His ability to have a grip of Islam and its tenets is what made Him such a significant and accomplished teacher of Islam. He taught with love and compassion, never belittling a student. The Prophet (PBUH) is reported as having remarked: “Allah sent me to teach (as a teacher), not to make things difficult...” This is the ultimate psychological safety we aim to provide in our online Quran classes.
