Grades 5 and Up
An entertaining way to improve typing speed, accuracy, and confidence.
Typing Tutor 7 combines multimedia elements such as video clips,
animation, and sound effects with personalized typing lessons. When first entering
the program, students select their level and take a typing test; Typing Tutor 7 automatically
develops the lessons, speed levels, and goals to match that skill level. As a
student's typing improves these settings continually adjust, presenting new challenges and
goals. Typing Tutor 7 addresses the needs of users ranging from
beginners and those who "hunt and peck" to touch typists and advanced users.
These unique features make improving typing skills easy and fun:
- A high level of customization, thanks to the sophisticated Natural Language Generator
and the Timed Response Monitoring System
- Exciting games make it truly fun to practice typing and build skills
- A straightforward, easily navigable interface makes it easy to use
- A "tutor" that always provides specific suggestions for next steps, along with
"go" buttons to take the user directly to those activities
