For a child who speaks Dutch most of the day
A child at a Dutch school spends most of the day in a language that lacks many Arabic sounds, such as ḥā’, ‘ayn and ḍād. So the one-to-one lesson starts with slow listening and repetition: the teacher repeats each letter with the child until it is right, then moves on to the short surahs.
