 Learning to touch type brings many benefits to dyslexic individuals and an educational psychologist, who has specialised in dyslexia for over 25 years, has developed this excellent Englishtype programme with that in mind

Learning to touch type will not only raise self-esteem and develop computer efficiency, it will also improve literacy skills. Making the correct letter choice to spell a word is facilitated through the multi-sensory experience of the patterns made when using the keyboard.

This programme encourages reading and improves spelling skills using National Literacy strategy word lists, with the emphasis on age relevant and useful vocabulary.

Unique special-needs friendly features include:

  • a multi-sensory approach
  • strong key/finger colour coding
  • visually uncluttered presentation
  • both written and spoken instructions
  • choice of background screen colours
The combination of short, self-taught lessons and fun games is designed to keep motivation high and make practice sessions painless. This software also includes a useful teacher administration and reporting package to analyse progress both of individuals and in class groups.
