This is not a flashy, game-based program. It is, however, a wonderful method for those easily-distractible kids. I have several combinations of dyslexic and ADHD kids, all of whom greatly benefit from the OG methods for typing (obviously) as well as reading & spelling! Worth it. 5/5
My 13 yr-old son has dysgraphia. For many years now, he has dictated his homeschool homework answers to me. We also work with dictation software for him to be able speak and create a document. We have always hoped he would be able to type, but after trying for many years, he still struggled with learning to type. After 6 months of using TTRS (about 3-4 days a week), he is now able to type! This will open so many doors for him. Thank you to TTRS!
This is an excellent, self-guided personalised programme that guides the learner, step by step, and records their progress. Very user friendly and engaging. Great for kids and adults alike and the extra bonus is that it is designed to support anyone with learning difficulties.
It's shocking that more primary schools don't use TTRS for pupils, whether struggling with spelling or not. My son has spent hours in spelling groups laboriously looking at, writing, writing the word again, etc. Only to forget it when trying to write a piece of work later on. Touch typing is a crucial life skill that would benefit everyone and what a bonus that it also helps with spelling! Fantastic that the programme is not babyish, something that my 11 year old son is always sensitive about. Many children with extra learning needs often feel behind their peers and some programmes with lots of cartoons graphics make them feel a bit stupid which is obviously not the case!
