How frequently will the students be tested on the material, and after what intervals?
Students can expect to be formally tested approximately once every 3-4 months (initially on Arabic and tajweed and progressing to other material as it is introduced). Testing is not designed to see who can achieve the highest marks and win the accolades of their peers but rather is an impetus for students to study the material and for the teachers to judge if any adjustments need to be made in the teaching pace and emphasis.
