Type IT! Touch Typing Avis 

My daughter (age 11) has completed a one week course (5 mornings, 2 hours each morning) with Type It and she enjoyed it so much that she has asked me to sign her up for another course before the end of the summer holidays. The tutor was very helpful and encouraging, and also extremely patient - my daughter learnt a great deal after only one week. The teaching groups are small and they use some great software that is very interactive, which makes the learning enjoyable and rewarding for children. When the online lessons are over, the software is still available for the children to keep practising in their own time. It's a great skill to have and my daughter says she feels really confident now about using it when she moves into senior school. I would definitely recommend it to other parents and their children. Thank you Type It for such a great course and we are looking forward to the next one too!

My daughter did the 12 week touch typing course for her DofE skill. I was a bit sceptical about it, thinking she would be ‘going through the motions’ just to get the tick in the box, but I was so wrong. What a great course! The tutor was excellent; giving really helpful feedback promptly every week and tailoring the pace to suit my daughter. She spent the first couple of weeks flailing about a bit, convinced she would never get the hang of it, but she persevered and followed all of the advice she was given, and finished the course typing with 100% accuracy and a respectable 31 wpm. I am so pleased that she has gained this valuable skill and is keen to continue practising to further improve. I am seriously considering doing the course myself now!

My daughter (aged 13) did the course for DOE. It was well structured and with a bit of perseverance my daughter can now touch type well. The weekly feedback provided lesson details to complete each period and with regular practice it worked!

After having attempted a few other programs, my two sons followed the Type IT! dyslexia program. It wasn't a fast track, but both are now proficient at touch typing and use their new skill in class and during exams.

Ellie Patel was a great tutor. Really supportive. Made it clear what was working well and what needed to be worked on.

Regular and encouraging communication with clear instructions for development, my daughter really enjoyed the course and has learnt a valuable new skill

Our daughter enrolled on the touch typing course for the new skill element of her Duke of Edinburgh award and we had the best experience with relevant guidance and feedback. She completed the course with flying colours. Everyone should do this course - fantastic life skill.

My 11 year old took a course from Type IT and really loved it. His tutor Mahima was fantastic. She was so calm and patient and very encouraging. My kid used to look forward to her feedback every week. He can now type with 100% accuracy and his speed is increasing with practice. I highly recommend TypeIT for anyone who is getting started with learning touch typing.

Thank you Typeit! Our second fantastic experience with your capable team. Great tuition and support - two teens now know how to type proficiently!

Highly recommended activity for the Duke of Edinburgh skill requirement.

Good support, well structured course. It did take my son a long time to complete his weekly tasks but it was worth it and he is definitely a better typer now!

Excellent course. My daughter did this for her D of E for 3 months and we are very satisfied with her progress.

Excellent service, super technology and brilliant tutors

My 13 year old daughter did a TypeIT course as part of her Duke of Edinburgh award. She really enjoyed the sessions and the experience of improving week by week. The weekly feed back from the allocated teacher was a very helpful and motivating. Touch typing is such a useful skill. Would highly recommend.

Excellent course which provided good life skill for young people. Type IT were good at giving regular, helpful feedback to fulfil the requirements of DofE course.

My son enjoyed the learning process and the continuous feedback was very useful. Highly recommend them.

The course totally exceeded my expectations. The software was excellent and the tutor was fantastic. She really knew how to teach typing in a kind but very effective way. I still cannot believe how much my son learnt in just 4 days. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. It is a skill all children should have.

My son really enjoyed taking part in the programme. He did the 3 month course for his DofE bronze. Weekly reviews received on time with encouragement and points to improve.

My son definitely enjoyed the classes and workshops! Teachers have amazing approach,tasks are interesting and engaging. We're definitely moving forward to this next class!

Wendy was fantastic, caring and supportive. Worked at the pace of my son who has sen needs. I would recommend her to anyone. It has helped my son and his school work as he can touch type and get down the information quicker. He can use a laptop as part of his EHCP. He has tried several other typing programmes previously but didn't work as it was independant. Having Wendy supporting him on zoom, it worked for him.
