I'm very grateful that my kids are getting to use TTRS to learn to type...and spell! We homeschool and both my 3rd and 5th grader are doing well in their programs. My daughter was born with only one hand so the one-handed typing option was key with TTRS as I searched for a good typing program for her. I am happy we found this one!
Excellent programme which allows learners to engage in a programme which improves their typing, reading, and spelling using an active and multi-sensory approach. It allows me to monitor learner's progress and, if necessary, to create bespoke levels / modules which target specific vocab or themes, or to differentiate according to learner's ability levels. Overall it's a user-friendly and engaging programme that I would highly recommend.
I have been using TTRS with several of my OT school aged patients with learning disabilities. They are demonstrating good progress with reading and typing and are very motivated to use it (several ask to use it whenever they come to a session). Besides the benefit from learning to read, spell, and touch type, we are using it as a means to improve bilateral integration, finger isolation, visual scanning, visual tracking, auditory processing, self-regulation/frustration tolerance, and visual motor integration. I like the order of learning the letters (working towards writing actual words) rather than other programs that do all the homerow keys and make nonsense words.
