0 items in your Touch-Typing - Quick Thinking on Your Fingertips™!
With this programme, you can learn to touch type in less than three hourse - more like two. That's if you're happy with learning the Alphabet keys. We also do an advanced version of the programme that covers both the Alphabet AND all the other keys in just one day.
What's more we teach this important life-skills using ALL the senses! Most of our programmes are sensory rich - visual, sound, practical activity - reflecting the Chinese Proverb, "I hear, I forget; I see, I remember; I do, I understand." However, this programme goes two steps further by using taste and scent to memorise the layout of the keyboard. It's not often that you can claim a programme is 'tasty' and in 'good taste'!
History Lesson...
The QWERTY keyboard was an innovation created to provide a work-around for a technical problem. The commonly used keys on the first typewriters used to jam if used in rapid conjunction with one another. Thus, the QWERTY keyboard was designed to stagger the order of the keys so that the mechanical system had time enough to reset itself. This technical requirement (which is also why the keys are in slanting columns) soon ceased to be an issue, but QWERTY was here to stay. One of the weirdest examples of the diffusion of innovation, the QWERTY keyboard is so widely accepted that it would take more energy to change it than to stay with the existing layout - and by a stroke of luck, it's actually very efficient. So, it's here to stay, and we can show you how to crack the code so that you can remember it. This is very important regardless of the keyboard's size - think Blackberry for a moment - knowing where the keys are in relation to each other really speeds up your workflow. Our programme is rather different to other leading programmes on the market. Our competitors teach the right fingers for the right keys - and do a very good job. What they don't do is help you memorise the keyboard's layout regardless of size. This means that QWERTY keyboards on small devices, like smart phones, can still cause confusion and interruption of your productivity. This programme teaches both the layout AND the right muscle movements - so you get the best of both worlds... plus chocolate! Oh yes, this programme is a MUST for lovers of good chocolate...
