How do you teach Quran to a child with dyslexia?

What if my child cannot sit through a full lesson?
Lessons are completely adaptable to 10 or 15-minute durations. If a student becomes restless or overwhelmed, the tutor immediately introduces a calming sensory break or concludes the session gracefully without pressure.
Can Quran lessons be adapted to my child's learning pace?
Yes, every student follows an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Tutors repeat individual Arabic letters across multiple lessons if needed, celebrating small developmental victories without rigid timelines.
