Ark Academy

Masha'Allah, Ark Academy provides a warm and welcoming environment to students from a variety of ages and backgrounds. Sheikh Sa'ad has studied sacred kowledge in the presence of many eminent scholars of our time for a number of years and has a passion for imparting knowledge to others. I studied tajweed and Arabic at Ark Academy for around 2 years and miss it to this day. From my personal experience, I have nothing but good to say and would recommend it to all. May Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى‎ bless Ark Academy: Sheikh Sa'ad, the teachers, students and all those involved in it's success and development. Ameen

I am having tajweed lessons with Ark Academy, and am finding them very helpful. The Sheikh is very thorough and teaches in a concise and effective manner in a friendly atmosphere. I can't recommend Arc Academy enough and have referred many family and friends for other classes at Arc Academy.

As a student at Ark Academy, I think that it is incredibly good. Even in lockdown, they still find ways to ensure that everyone is still getting the attention needed. The teachers at Ark Academy are attentive and kind. They are professional and strict, but also fun and good people. All in all, I think it is a great environment, and I’m glad I go here.

In the name of Allah the Most Compassionate, the Most MercifulSheik Saad is a very humble and talented individual. Sheik Saad had a perpetual desire to acquire knowledge from prominent scholars from very young age . Allah s.w.t has gifted Sheik Saad with a resonant voice to teach the Holy Quran, which makes him very unique from most teachersI went from pillar to post for years and had bad experiences .But I finally progressed in my tajweed with Ark Academy even though I was so apprehensive having a male teacher.The ratio of teacher to student is incredible. It enables them to deliver a outstanding prefomance to treat each child as an individual rather then a number.All the teachers are diligent in aspect of person centred approach, which helps the child's development and progress.Mu'allima Mariam (shiek's daughter) is very charming and so professional for her age. I was astonished her ability to draw the children like a magnet with her Sandwich Therapy .Ark Academy is very stringent on delivering the Covid infection control and prevention policy. There contingency plan to teach has been amazing through the pandemic.As a previous student and volunteer, I highly recommend Ark Academy to everyone who has a perpetual desire to progress without wasting valuable time .

Fabulous teaching enviroment catered to the needs of all children. One to one time given to each individual. No child is left behind to struggle. They are pushed to reach thier ability and full potential. Good communication with parents and lots of fun activities put together for the children. The teachers have good relationships with each student and the environment is very welcoming.

Went to Ark Academy for Tajweed lessons, i am a revert to Islam, so had no prior knowledge in Arabic or islamic studies. The ustaji (teacher) was so patience with me as i really struggled and he didnt make me feel like i was an inconvience to his class. I felt able to approach the Ustaji with questions i had, and since using Ark Academy services have progressed further. Would highly recommend their services.

Fantastic set up, with professional teachers giving children are happy learning experience with amazing results .The curriculum has been thought out very well, and taught in a creative fun way. I highly recommend all parents to visit Ark Academy and see for themselves the professionalism that is portrayed throughout the academy .

My children have been with ARK academy since they were four.I have recieved good value for money,kids have learnt alot and they have always been able to connect with the teachers at ark academy and have been motivated by there teaching methods.recommended.

The director has gone above and beyond to make me feel welcome and valued since relocating to Bradford. He spent his valuable time to assist me when searching for accommodation, sourced services to repair my transport that I rely on for work purposes, and provided relevant agencies that support me with advice and guidance whenever I have faced difficulties in this new environment. In addition, the expertise available at the madrasah is worthwhile for those who wish to begin or continue their pursuit of achieving mastery in the Arabic language, memorising the Holy Qur'an with the correct rules of tajweed or even opening doors for finding a spouse. I pray for Allah's (swt) barakah (blessing) to pour into the endeavours that these beloved individuals are providing to the local residents of Bradford and enable a transformation to take place in this part of the world for the better. Ameen.

I have been with Ark Academy from the beginning and learning tajweed has given me the ability to read with confidence and recognise the rules.I was embarrassed and apprehensive at the start but the sisters gave each other support as we are all in the same boat, perfecting our reading or starting from scratch. JazakAllah for teachers like Sheikh Saad.
