I took the Basic Islamic Education Course and found it very instructive. The reason I signed up for this course is that I am a teacher myself, so I wanted to learn as a professional how to parent in an Islamic way. I thought the teacher explained the material very clearly. It wasn't too fast, but it wasn't too slow either. I was very motivated to take the classes. I didn't miss one. At the beginning of the course I did have some basic knowledge about Islamic education, but my knowledge has certainly been taken to a higher level through the course and my skills in practice have also improved. The course has made me think more in advance about why I do something and that it is a form of worship. I would definitely recommend the course to others.
I have been teaching at an Islamic primary school for several years now. The Islamic Pedagogy course has made me more aware of my own identity and responsibility as a role model for my students. During the course it was very inspiring to be presented with so many examples from the life of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), who has also been the best example for mankind as an educator.
The Islamic Education course of Asma Claassen has stuck with me very well. As a parent you often react out of automatism. Then you think you're doing it right. But if you really look at the wisdom in the Qur'an and the example of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) you realize that it could (and sometimes even should) be different. Your own actions cause a reaction in your children. Asma teaches you to look at yourself first. She holds up a mirror to you.
