You do not need to read Arabic to move your child's Quran along. The three things that matter most are yours to give: a fixed time, five minutes of listening a day, and asking the teacher one question a month. Correcting the Tajweed is the teacher's job, not yours.
The three things that are yours
A fixed time
The same slot every day, guarded like a school run. Children who read at random times read less, whoever is teaching them.
Five minutes of listening
Ask your child to read yesterday's line to you. You do not need to know whether it is right. Being listened to is what makes a child practise.
One question a month
Ask the teacher which stage your child is on and what the next one is. That single question keeps a class from drifting for a term.
Things that help more than people expect
- Sit in on a lesson now and then. You do not have to understand it to see whether your child is reading or watching.
- Learn the names of the stages — letters, joined letters, harakat, then the Quran — so you can follow the conversation.
- Play a recitation your child likes in the car. Ears learn before mouths do.
- Ask the teacher to teach in Urdu if that is the language you follow, so you can hear what is being corrected.
Things that are not your job
Correcting pronunciation from a YouTube video you half remember. Testing your child on rules you were taught differently. Quizzing them the evening before a lesson so they perform well for the teacher.
All three come from good intentions and all three make a child tense about reading. Hand the correcting back to the teacher and keep the part that only you can do, which is making it ordinary at home.
