Typing Quick & Easy 17 - The Fastest Way to Improve Your Typing Skills! - Teaches Keyboard Basics Following One of 50+ Skill-Appropriate Typing Lessons

I have been practicing diligently with this program for about two weeks. I have improved my typing speed by about 15 wpm in that time, from about 35wpm to 50 wpm. I think the main factor that has helped my speed is practicing the exercises that have taught me to touch type the numbers at the top of the keyboard, and the symbols at the top, bottom and far right side of the keyboard. I was already mostly doing that with the letters of the alphabet, but I had never learned to touch type the numbers and symbols (except very common ones, like the comma and period). It's so nice to be able to type without constantly looking down. This program gives a lot of practice options that I believe will keep most people engaged. Of course, you have to practice to make it work, but I can definitely say, based on my results, that if you do practice your typing will improve. Additionally, the program has training exercises to teach you to touch type ten key (the numbers on the far right of your keyboard). I have never been able to do that, until now. Improving my typing is my priority, so I spend most of my time on that, but I have been spending a little time on learning the ten key, and that is improving daily as well.I used to work at a temporary staffing agency, and so many people would come and apply for clerical work, thinking that because they could use personal email and search the internet that they could work as administrative assistants. Often the typing speed was very low, and data entry as well. We had training programs that they could use to learn software programs like MS Word and Excel, but we did not have anything to use for typing practice. Too bad. If I worked there again, I would tell everyone who needed to improve to just buy this inexpensive teaching program.

I enjoy the program and it has helped me type faster, but I have had problems with the product. The download had glitches , so I bought the software and the music does not work on the program. I can still type, but the music helped make it more fun.

I like it so far.

A very nice program that is basic but helps hone your typing speed and accuracy. Great for beginners. Once installed you can use it offline. If your on a budget and need to advance your typing skills, this is the program to get..

Avoid this program. I am running Windows 7 64 bits. When I have finished installing Typing Quick & Easy I discovered that only the administrator can run this application. Running as a regular user results in error 75 and the application exits right away.Obviously leaving the kids running in the administrator account is a very bad idea.

Very generic and most of the features did not work. The music that was suppose to accompany the lessons did not happen. Also the voice lessons didn't work as well. I expected better. I wish I paid a little bit more and got the Mavis Beacon typing tutor.

This tutorial was a good buy. Outstanding computer CD that teaches how to type and includes games. I was able to build up my speed by typing two practices everyday and with each I would stay on it until I beat my previous score.

This product was well worth the money it cost.It's great for all the family to use with lots of ways to practise your typing skills.User friendly and fun.Good for all ages from kids to grown ups. Tracks your progress and shows proper finger placement.Kids will like the games.Buy it you won't be disapointed.

Finally received CD - ran full install but was unable to run program - "an administrator has blocked you from running this app"Applying for refund
