How classes work for families in Abu Dhabi
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 Abu Dhabi (Gulf Standard Time (Dubai, Abu Dhabi)). The UAE is only one hour behind Pakistan, so after-school hours (about 3 to 5 pm) are 4 to 6 pm in Pakistan. Friday works differently from other weekdays for many families because of the Friday prayer, so tell us if you would like to keep Friday free or move it.

The UAE does not use daylight saving time, and neither does Pakistan, so the UAE stays one hour behind Pakistan all year round. To check any other time, use the class time converter.
In-person madrasa or online 1-on-1 in Abu Dhabi?
| 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.
