    I am working hard to learn to type. So far, the program is not too bad. It will take me some time to really under all facets of the program. I have not reached the speed I want because I have not mastered the key board. That will come with practice. This program will help.

    I had a previous typing program that was easier to work with and that the options were easy and simple to set up. Typing is lacking the fun element. Games are lackluster so far, I'm only comparing the games to other typing games so I don't think I'm asking a lot for a paid typing teacher program to have fun games that make it more light hearted.

    I much prefer the more kid versions of typing tutors. This program had your typing far away from what you had to type so you can’t really watch what your typing while your typing so that you can correct it easily!

    this program slowed up my computer. This program does not teach typing techniques, it is primarily a timer to check speed and accuracy. I do not recommend this for beginners
