Online support for people with a specific learning difficulty

These days, if your child doesn’t learn to type quickly and accurately, they will be at a disadvantage. Typing is no longer for secretaries - most of us now use a keyboard more often than a pen. On an average school day, children use a computer for three hours, yet most schools don’t teach typing. Your child needs to learn to type properly to keep ahead of the game.

Typequick is arguably the world’s most effective children’s touch-typing training program. It will teach your child to touch-type in just a few weeks of short but regular practice sessions. The course contains scores of varied exercises and challenges to soon get your child typing faster than their friends. With practice, they could soon be reaching speeds in excess of 60 wpm, and having fun at the same time!

The program features ‘Kewala’, the cool and zany bear who takes you on journey around his native Australia whilst teaching you to type along the way. You access the course online at home through your own computer. At just £24, the course is great value for a skill that lasts forever. Please visit our web site to order or call for more information.
