How classes work for families in Doha
Every class is a live 1-on-1 video lesson, Monday to Friday, with 20 classes a month on every plan. Your teacher is based in Pakistan, but your slot is agreed in your own local time in Doha (Arabia Standard Time (Doha)). Qatar is only two hours behind Pakistan, so after-school hours (about 3 to 5 pm) are 5 to 7 pm in Pakistan. Friday and Saturday are the weekend in Qatar, so a Monday to Friday plan will not suit every family; a custom package can set a different weekly pattern.
Time conversion for Doha
| Your time zone | Gap | When it is 2:00 pm in Pakistan | When it is 4:00 pm in Pakistan | When it is 6:00 pm in Pakistan | When it is 8:00 pm in Pakistan |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arabia Standard Time (Doha) | Pakistan is 2 hours ahead | 12:00 pm | 2:00 pm | 4:00 pm | 6:00 pm |
Example conversions, not a timetable: which slots are actually free is confirmed when you book your trial.
Qatar does not use daylight saving time, and neither does Pakistan, so Qatar stays two hours behind Pakistan all year round. To check any other time, use the class time converter.
In-person madrasa or online 1-on-1 in Doha?
| In-person madrasa | Online 1-on-1 | |
|---|---|---|
| Teacher attention | Usually a group; the teacher hears each learner briefly. | The whole lesson is on one learner, and mistakes are corrected on the spot. |
| Pace | Set by the group and the term plan. | Set by the learner; hard parts can be repeated. |
| Travel and timing | Travel to a fixed place at fixed times. | From home, with a time agreed within the teacher's hours. |
| Community | Other children, the congregation and the mosque setting. | No peer group; it pairs well with local community life. |
| Parent visibility | Varies by venue. | Parents may sit in, and progress notes appear in the parent dashboard. |
Both have a place, and many families use both: the local community for belonging, and 1-on-1 lessons for precise correction of recitation.
Questions from families in Doha
What timezone do Doha classes run in?
Arabia Standard Time — detected automatically when you book, so your teacher's hours are matched to yours.
Can we request a female teacher for our daughter in Doha?
Yes — every class at Saba Quran is currently taught by Saba Afzal, a female, Ijazah-holding teacher who teaches in English and Urdu, so a female teacher is the default rather than a special request. Mention any other preference when you book a free trial.
What is the time difference between Doha and your teacher?
Your teacher is based in Pakistan (UTC+5, with no daylight saving time). For Doha (Arabia Standard Time (Doha)): Pakistan is 2 hours ahead in standard time. This does not change during the year, because neither side uses daylight saving time. Your slot is agreed in your local time.
