talqin or tasmi’
Talqin means an ustadz reading the Koran to be followed by his students.
If you don’t have an ustadz who can read to you, listening to the Koran reading from the recording can also be an alternative.
Although the alternative is not as good as if you are dealing with the ustadz directly. Because if you are dealing directly with the ustadz, then your wrong reading when following the reading, can be corrected immediately.
As for tasmi’ means a student reading the Koran to be heard by the ustadz.

- Then read the second verse 10-20 times until you memorize it
- Read the first + second verse 10-20 times until you memorize it
- Then read the third verse 10-20 times until you memorize it
