Touch Typing is an essential life skill and we find that children who learn accurately to literally type without looking at their fingers, will save time in producing homework and in exams etc. As experienced Specialist Teachers, we are able to effectively differentiate and individualise touch typing challenges so that all students achieve their potential. Multi-sensory learning, through games and incentives, create a brilliantly fun atmosphere in which children aged 7 upwards, thrive! We have children who want to learn good basic typing skills and those who need this skill in order to type for GCSEs, and A Level exams. Note taking, punctuation skills and real time typing under pressure are also explored with the advanced students. An encouraging, motivating and uplifting environment is created in which children of all learning abilities thrive. We specialise in helping children with dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia and hypermobility as well as for those just want to learn it as a life skill, or for application towards the skill section of the DofE levels. Our testimonies tell of children literally loving the courses to such an extent, that they often come back time and time again, bringing their siblings and friends for follow up courses!

Fantastic course for my son to start his TT journey. Well organised, motivating and fun for the children! Thank you Seth and Delia. We will definitely be back for another one on the future. Eat sleep type repeat!

My 10-year old son attended a February half-term zoom course. It was great - high energy and tailored to kids' ways of learning, with plenty of colour, games and motivating prizes. There was plenty of one-to-one teaching, even in a group class and via zoom (in break-out rooms). My son made great progress in the one week and we will definitely implement what he has learned going forwards. Highly recommended.

This was a brilliant course for our nine year old son. Delia and Seth are such engaging, patient and fun teachers and he learnt loads. They were brilliant at giving feedback and encouraging all the children, too. It worked really well remotely and the tech set up was very clear. This course was so well organised, good value and our son was sad when it was ended. We would recommend it without reservation! Naomi and Dan

My child really enjoyed the course and loved the style and energy of Seth and Delia to support her in speeding up her typing. We mentioned to a Delia she was concerned she was not getting the accuracy and speed of others in the class. Delia really spent extra time with my daughter to help her confidence grow such that at the end she got really good scores. She continues to enjoy practicing well after the course too which is very important.

Fantastic touch typing course! Very professional set-up with the dedicated and very supportive Seth and Delia. My daughter has completed two courses and I am always impressed with her huge improvement each time after just one week. I would highly recommend this course to any parent who wants their child to type accurately, at speed and with confidence.

It was really fun and helped me a lot. The teachers were very enthusiastic and definitely very helpful. I’m going to keep practicing now that I’ve got some confidence with my typing.

This is a fantastic course, that really helps children learn to touch type. Superbly run by Delia and Seth Gascoigne who created a really exciting and fun atmosphere that the children adored. Our daughter loved the course, and couldn’t wait to log on everyday as soon as she came home from school. Learning to touch type will make a huge difference to our daughter both at school and the wider world, and we can’t recommend the course highly enough.

This is the most fantastic typing course. My son loved every minute of it and can now type! It has boosted his confidence and given him a truly valuable skill that will last for life. I am so grateful to Delia and Seth for their warmth, enthusiasm and encouragement and highly recommend this course.

I had a very reluctant 10-year-old son at the beginning of the week but after session one he was totally hooked and look forward to every session. How you managed to bring so much energy and enjoyment to an online course is a testament to you both. He has improved so much! A huge thank you to Delia and Seth for giving him such a great start in his journey. We will recommend you to everyone.

This engaging and informative course helped me learn the crucial principles of touch typing and since then I’ve improved dramatically ; typing 65 WPM with no less than 95% accuracy. I’m very thankful that Delia and Seth helped me develop this life skill and I highly recommend this course.

Delia and Seth are the best touch typing teachers I have ever known. They helped me to get from a starting point of 2 words per minute and now I am typing at 75 words per minute and only in the course of 1 and a half years! I am truly happy to say that they are really great teachers!
