For 20 years, Typing Instructor has helped individuals improve their typing skills. Now, Typing Instructor for Kids 2 delivers the same proven typing methods for children in an entertaining and educational environment. Toby and Lafitte help parents entertain, motivate, and educate their young typists and quickly turn them into touch-typists.
Acquire Essential Typing Skills Early
Helping your children learn to type correctly early in life is essential; once bad habits set in, they are more difficult to change later. With a foundation of essential typing skills, younger students will complete homework more quickly and accurately, and they'll possess the basic Internet skills they need to excel.
Lessons, Challenges & Results
Proven educational and instructional techniques are incorporated into Typer Island's lessons and tests. WPM (Words Per Minute) and accuracy scores are reported after each typing activity and results are saved for up to five typists.
Typer Island Adventure is an exciting place to learn to type! Your kids will be motivated to improve their typing skills as they travel through five unique lands leading up to the Castle. In each land, they'll experience new and exciting typing challenges, learn new keys, and build speed and accuracy.
