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!

My son loved this class so much he took it twice! He loved everything about it and given all the home schooling and online classes, it couldn't have come at a better time! Seth and Delia are so encouraging and really kept it fun and fast paced. No way to get board or lose focus in this class! He got so much out of this class and he kept pushing himself to do better and better. Not only that, the whole group was rooting for each other. It was wonderful listening to his giggles and cheers! EAT, SLEEP, TYPE, REPEAT!!!!

This is an excellent online touch typing course for kids. My 11 year old daughter absolutely loved it. Delia was so engaging, fun and informative. She managed to keep the kids totally engaged and learning at all times which is hard when you have a number of kids working remotely. My daughter really improved her touch typing and really enjoys it due to the excellent teaching. I cant recommend it enough!

During the lockdown we enrolled into the Touch typing for kids online and even though the group was on Zoom Delia and Seth kept everyone excited about learning with some great prizes and fun activities. My daughter felt encouraged and really enjoyed the class. I highly recommend this course for everyone - a great LIFE SKILL to have!

Excellent course.... the kids found it great fun and it’s made a big difference especially now with on-line learning. The instructors were really great and understanding even if the kids had a bit of a wobble! Would highly recommend the course and wish we had done it sooner.

Delia and Seth were amazing teachers and encouraging and supportive from beginning to end! My two loved the course so much and their typing is much improved. Now my 5 year old wants to know when she can do it! Thank you both so much, would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone.

My son loved his touchtyping lessons with Delia and Seth! He was looking forward to the class every week, he progressed surprisingly fast and he is now a confident touch-typist. Delia and Seth did a brilliant job of making these lessons fun, interactive and more-ish, even continuing into lockdown.

The lessons were super helpful for doing work online during Lockdown. They really helped me speed up typing as well as my accuracy. The course is super useful and will give me a real edge on my GCSEs. Delia and Seth are so kind and they really get to know you, both on what you're learning and as a person.

What a super course my 9 year old twins really enjoyed the lessons and were always looking forward to the next one they have come so far on their keyboard skills and getting very good on typing their work for home schooling. Delia and Seth were both great and have lots of tip and encouragement for the children.

Delia and Seth are so fun, vibrant and energetic and and my son was so engaged in their program! He did it twice and has told me ‘they are them kindest people’. Their patience and knowledge of dyslexia and how to help is amazing

Seth and Delia are brilliant! My children 9 and 6 loved their sessions and learnt to touch type within a month! Can’t recommend them highly enough!

Thanks Seth and Delia! It took me a while to persuade my daughter that she’d enjoy touch typing - and it truly has been the highlight of lockdown for her! She enjoyed the classes a lot and her touch typing really improved. They make classes great fun - even over Zoom. First place in the queue for the next one please! Xx

I signed up my dyslexic daughter (aged 12) to a weekly touch-typing course in Jan/Feb. I had tried to get her to learn using various applications before but nothing really worked. From week 1, she loved the course and of course Seth and Delia. They have some good techniques like placing similarly aged children together so they have a "friend". The pace is self-driven but fast and when we encountered some mid-week uncertainty in homework, we got a reply back immediately from Delia. The timing could not have been better for this Coronavirus lockdown. My daughter's confidence in typing means she took to online learning very well and can knock out verbose content (English, History, etc.) quicker than she can write the same content.

This is absolutely the best way to start your children touch typing! My son (age 10) did a 5 day course and although he was a little reluctant to do it, he has an amazingly fun week and got so much out of it. The teachers (Delia and Seth) were beyond enthusiastic and fun with all the children. Touch typing is a skill all children should learn and it is especially beneficial to my son who is dyslexic. Delia and Seth have been very kind and have helped me continue the course at home but I will definitely do another course with them to keep him on track. I can't recommend this course more! Sam

My son recently completed the touch typing course which was very child friendly. They used techniques which encouraged the boys to practise and kept them enthused throughout the 5 day course. Highly recommend the course!
