Touch-type Read and Spell (TTRS) Reviews 369

I love that this program is multi-purpose, multi-faceted! My dyslexic daughter is benefitting from the OG sequencing and learning to type WHILE learning to spell. The multi-sensory approach is great.

Great software for dyslexic kids. My daughter is gaining confidence in both reading and writing. She is working her way independently and that's another bonus and great to see. 5 mins every day is what she does but it is making a difference.

I LOVE TTRS. I appreciate that they use Orton Gillingham methods. Each lesson is short. My 8 year old grandson has ADHD and can stay focused in these lessons. He can go at his own pace, and review as many times as necessary! I definitely recommend this typing program!

Our experience with TTRS has been nothing but wonderful. The customer service support is amazing, and you can tell this is a team of people who care. The program itself is topnotch. My son was, at first, resistant to trying anything new, especially after having a bad experience in public school. However, after his first few lessons, he is motivated and excited to type. I can see how the skills he is learning translates to his written work as his spelling has improved in a short time. Thank you so much for this wonderful program!

We are so happy we found this program for our son. His spelling and typing has progressed immensely and he feels a sense of pride and accomplishment with each lesson. Highly recommend.

Unique approach to supporting literacy for neurodiverse adults & children.

Staff very helpful, provided reduced costing as we are a small special needs school. Many of our students are disadvantaged.
TTRS is a very good programme and many students find it helpful. It suits students who like repetition and is many find it non threatening as they can work at their own pace and level

I'm very grateful that my kids are getting to use TTRS to learn to type...and spell! We homeschool and both my 3rd and 5th grader are doing well in their programs. My daughter was born with only one hand so the one-handed typing option was key with TTRS as I searched for a good typing program for her. I am happy we found this one!

Really great service, highly recommended.

Our students are adults and really like the program. It helps them to learn how to type properly and to increase their typing speed. It provides them a skill that may help them get a job.

Excellent programme which allows learners to engage in a programme which improves their typing, reading, and spelling using an active and multi-sensory approach. It allows me to monitor learner's progress and, if necessary, to create bespoke levels / modules which target specific vocab or themes, or to differentiate according to learner's ability levels. Overall it's a user-friendly and engaging programme that I would highly recommend.

TTRS is great! I love the ability to use the dictation function. Having to type only by listening to the words has increased my speed and accuracy. My spelling has improved also. Thanks so much.

I have been using TTRS with several of my OT school aged patients with learning disabilities. They are demonstrating good progress with reading and typing and are very motivated to use it (several ask to use it whenever they come to a session). Besides the benefit from learning to read, spell, and touch type, we are using it as a means to improve bilateral integration, finger isolation, visual scanning, visual tracking, auditory processing, self-regulation/frustration tolerance, and visual motor integration. I like the order of learning the letters (working towards writing actual words) rather than other programs that do all the homerow keys and make nonsense words.

The TTRS help service got to my query quickly & took care of what I needed. Thank you!

We love the typing modules - they work!! Our kids’ typing skills have improved greatly since beginning TTRS, and they love using the program, so it doesn’t feel like a chore.

Really good programme. The students are engaging well and like the idea of working independently and seeing instant feedback of their progress.

TTRS is an invaluable tool in our homeschool--bonus, the kids love doing the exercises!

We've been using this with two students, 5th and 6th grade, and so far it's been awesome. They enjoy it, it's not frustrating, easy to use, and they are making progress!

I like the themes offered and being able to input my own words and sentences to compliment other subjects.
