Keyboarding For You
With the advantage of early training, a growing
population of students will benefit from learning the
most basic computer access skill of all … TOUCH-TYPING!
Program Director - Facilitator
"It's been my experience that 1st through 3rd grade is a good time to introduce keyboard training. By following simple yet effective techniques, children can learn to navigate a computer keyboard skillfully by touch. I love teaching young students to touch-type and know it will be one of the most practical tools in their academic toolbox." Barbara Oliver
