The Olive Tree began its journey in 2010 as Noorul Ilm, operating out of a small party hall at ETA apartments with just 10 students. This humble beginning laid the foundation for a transformative educational institution. As the center grew, it rapidly expanded, hosting weekend Tarbiyya programs in schools and introducing comprehensive Arabic language courses designed to provide non-native speakers with a robust foundation in the Arabic language. The mission of The Olive Tree has always been to help individuals connect deeply with the Quran and Hadith through a strong understanding of the Arabic language, fostering meaningful connections to Islamic teachings.
Today, The Olive Tree operates as a full-time center, offering high-quality Arabic language education to students of all ages. The programs cover various aspects of Arabic language learning, including Reading, Writing, and Speaking (Discover Arabic Huroof Series), Noor Bayan (Qaida Nooraniyya) for correct articulation, reading, and Tajweed of the Arabic language. The Grassroots Tarbiyya program emphasizes character building and personality development, with expert teachers facilitating engaging and effective learning experiences for both kids and adults.
The Olive Tree prides itself on creating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere through its friendly staff, ensuring a child-friendly and inclusive environment. With KHDA certification guaranteeing approved and recognized courses, the center is committed to providing basic Arabic language training for kids and making quality education accessible, impactful, and transformative for all students.
