Using or Through?

Question

Egyptians teach Islamic teachings and beliefs using / through the Arabic language curriculum.

Is it a method of teaching? If so, then I'd say it should be (by) using. To teach, you use a blackboard, a projector, or the Socratic method. But if it doesn't have to be one or the other, I'd say the sentence should use with. — Jason Bassford, Commented Oct 3, 2018 at 22:01
Jason you say I should say "Egyptians use the Arabic language curriculum to teach Islamic teachings and beliefs " or "Egyptians teach Islamic teachings and beliefs by using The arabic language curriculum". I think you are right. Thank you👍💋 — bob, Commented Oct 6, 2018 at 0:19

If it is part of the curriculum, then it is through; if not then it can only be using.

That should not matter as far as grammar/ meaning/ usage is concerned.
