Teach pupils or students to touchtype with a free program.
I think most people would agree that being able to touch type brings huge benefits to pupils and students both at school and indeed in the world of work. Certainly, as one who learned to touch type early on, I’ve found the skill invaluable.
And yet touch typing is not part of the curriculum, and in many schools this means the skill does not get taught – it falls between all the departments.
There are many courses around that teach young people to touch type, but the problem is that most of them tend to demand payment up front without much chance to see how effective the programme is.
Of course, there are one or two free programs around, but they tend to be rather restricted and don’t give the child the ability to develop full touch typing skills – even though they claim to.
So it’s good to come across a comprehensive course that offers schools the chance to use it for 30 days free of charge. It’s called the ‘Three for Free’ 30-day Trial from Type&Test Ltd
The idea is that you find three volunteers who cannot type but would like to learn. You then get a licence for each of them for 30 days, and at the end give the course provider some feedback.
If you do go on to order after the trial there are extra discounts available from the company by way of saying thanks.
