I truly enjoyed going through the beginner lessons. I found them challenging and enriching! I only had an issue on the final exam. I didn't know that I would need to type some words in Arabic letters. I don't have an Arabic keyboard installed on my computer, so I didn't pass that part. On part two of the exam I went through the written part but I couldn't tell how to submit my answers.

It was amazing. I have all my kids completing it too. Only thing i would say as constructive feedback is, that on the test, it mentioned all letter have 4 forms, but when selecting this on the test, it’s marked as incorrrect. Also when asked to search for the أ on the final exam, there was no hamzah to itendify in the scentence given.. and when the video came to highlighting the answers, the ا (alifs) were circled instead. The words given to read in the final were without harakat, and whilst i was okay with the words, this may cause others confusion. Also the لا was discussed in the final but used in the tests from the start may confuse some. (Forgive me if this is taken the wrong way, i just felt to give some honest feedback to prevent anyone maybe getting confused in future). جزاكم الله خيرا

There was no harakat, and it isn't in the course so far, so I was left guessing when asked to say the words.

But otherwise amazing, jazzakallahu khair.
