I'm trying to find some kind of typing course for my teenage DC. So much schoolwork needs to be typed now and at the moment the choice is me typing it quickly for them or them doing it themselves, painfully slowly.

Can anyone recommend a course they can do, preferably at home from a disk or online - pleeeease !

I learnd with Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing - its still available on Amazon.

I have a typing speed of 80 wpm so think it worked although had years of practice as an Office Junior when I left school.

BTW - does the mavis beacon use touch typing skills? I assume it does but just checking.
