Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 40 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the program for its effectiveness in teaching typing, often noting significant improvements in their children's skills. Many people appreciate its multi-sensory approach, which is particularly beneficial for children with diverse learning needs, including those with ADHD, dyslexia, and autism. Reviewers also highlight the program's ability to enhance spelling, reading, vocabulary, listening, and concentration skills, leading to increased confidence in writing and overall academic progress. However, some customers also noted that the program can be frustrating at times, particularly due to the text-to-speech bot's pronunciation. A few other people also felt that navigating the dashboard to access different courses was not as straightforward as the main course, making it less accessible for younger children. Additionally, some found the initial setup confusing, especially for Android tablets.

Well done TTRS…

I find the program straightforward for pupils to use and highly effective. My pupils enjoy the challenge of improving their scores for each module. The support from my contact, Jean, is brilliant! The only issue I have is that at times of high traffic, it takes a while for the program to load, and it can also freeze! I know this is something the company is working on

So thankful to find this program!

So thankful to find this program!! My son has severe dyslexia and ADHD. I love how you show which finger to use every letter, and how you use words and sentences. Thanks for producing such a fantastic program!

TTRS and Literacy Skills

As a learning support teacher, I found that TTRS has helped my students with phonics, reading, writing, spelling and letter recognition. I would highly recommend TTRS to any teacher.

Touch-type Read and Spell is an excellent choice for our home school experience

Touch-type Read and Spell is an excellent choice for our home school experience. Other typing tutors may focus on finger placement and speed, whereas TTRS incorporates spelling, listening, and reading. Our student sees the word, hears the word, and types the word. Now she is at the level (Level 21) where the word is used in a sentence, which she also types.

This is my son’s 4th year using TTRS

This is my son’s 4th year using TTRS. He has multiple challenges (ASD, ADHD, DCD, SPD, Irlen Syndrome, GAD), however with TTRS he’s always eager to learn and never complains. In fact, this program has helped him tremendously in his language development and coordination. Therefore, we are always looking forward to having TTRS by our side each school year.

Research Based

This program is based on the Orton-Gillingham approach , which is evidence based. I have used it with children with additional needs and have found it very helpful.

We love this program to make our own…

We love this program to make our own spelling list. This program has improved our kids spelling, typing speed, and thought process. They feel more confident and they love when they complete a level. They feel accomplished.

Loving it so far!

I have been intimidated to teach my 10 year old twins typing skills, but knew that I needed to find a good program. This program was recommended to me and I find it to be awesome so far! We just started a week ago and they just today, slowly but surely, successfully typed a paragraph of their writing assignment. Their hands are in the correct positions and they are determined! I love how the program teaches single letter positions as well as whole words pretty early on. We are loving this program and I highly recommend!

We are so thankful for TTRS

We are so thankful for TTRS!
Here are a few reasons why:
1) TTRS gives great feedback to our son, including scores and celebrations!
2) TTRS does not look like a ‘little kids program’, so our 14year old is more than happy to engage in it.
3) The lessons are a good length, great for a ‘low battery’ kid. He feels more accomplished after completing a few lessons rather than one long one.
4)The results we have seen already are wonderful! Peaceful lessons and progress in learning!

We are huge fans of TTRS, very thankful for this amazing program.

Is really helping the children learn…

Is really helping the children learn how and where to position their hands and fingers. They are also enjoying being slightly competitive and encouraging with wpm...it's a good motivator without being too competitive

Actually works

Wasn’t expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. It really helps build good muscle memory, and takes everything step by step so I wasn’t overwhelmed and could stick with it which is important for me as I have ADHD.

Great program and customer service

Great program and customer service (at least so far), easy enough to use, my children are engaged and actually look forward to practice every morning. It's also a great tool if you are homeschooling, like us.
