Past tense verb

عَلَّمَهُۥ (Has taught him) is a past tense verb — the action already happened and is complete.

We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.

Lesson 8 · Verbs — Past & Present
Verb form II — intensified

عَلَّمَهُۥ (Has taught him) uses form II (فَعَّلَ) — the middle letter is doubled, which makes the meaning stronger or causative.

The meaning is more intense than the basic form, or means "to make someone do [action]".
