Vivian, Homeschooler of a child with dyslexia
I have a ten year-old son who has dyslexia. My daughter is in eighth grade and she also uses Touch-type Read and Spell. She is not dyslexic but the program helps with her keyboarding practice and spelling. We homeschool and work on a small budget - almost everything we use is free - but TTRS is a program we happily pay for. My children look forward to their typing lessons.

I purchased the Touch-type Read and Spell program for my daughter who was having difficulty with the typing course she was using at school. She’s in a gifted program but also struggles with dyslexia and slow processing. I knew my daughter was an auditory learner and that the voice prompts in TTRS would help. TTRS makes it much easier for her to type the right letters.

We used the Touch-type Read and Spell course to teach my ten-year-old son typing, in order to help him with his writing. Since he learned typing, he’s more able to express himself in writing. He’s also more confident because he knows he can keep up in the classroom and do homework and other school assignments on the computer. His typing skills have improved significantly - he’s even trying coding lessons this year!
