Hello - I have an 8yo I am HEing and she really finds writing both difficult and a chore. It holds her back, as she actually has great VCOP skills and a good imagination when fired.

So I would like her to learn touchtyping. I had an online downloaded taster programme, but she's run out of levels now and it is time to spend some money on a package. I've seen lots on Amazon etc but would really value some advice. I post this in general ed. too.

Anyone have any tips? Smile

You won't go wrong with Mavis Beacon. You can get older versions of it on ebay very cheaply.
