Computer Keyboarding for Beginners

Bought this for my 13 year old son to learn the proper finger positioning for typing-and within just about a week or 2, he learned! Now he’s building up his timing and he’s going fabulously-without having taken a typing class!

This is pretty straight forward, I do wish it wasn't so cheap feeling. It's all in black and white. I honestly grabbed this for a friend of mine whose child has autism and likes looking at letters and patterns..however he did not enjoy this book lol. But for typing it seems straight forward, just a littttttle boring for young kids.

Really like the lesson quality and schema of this book. It introduces concepts in a very user friendly way and has scaffolded practice built in. Wouldn’t use this for children under 8 simply because the lessons progress a bit quickly but overall, a great program/book!

This is a great book for anyone who is looking to learn how to type on a keyboard. its easy to follow and to the point, and it doesn't have 50 pages to read before you get started. The book gets right to the point and is very simple for anyone of any age & education level to follow. It teaches the key board and finger positions and has great practice techniques. After you learn finger placement and the keyboard the rest is practice and repetition. Highly recommend for home study and teaching. You won't do better in a in-person class...I've done both.

My friend had a hard time learning to type, she tried programs online and couldn't seem to get the hang of it so I purchased this book, to try and help her a little bit. It did the trick she seems very content with the book.

I bought this book during the coronavirus pandemic to let my students have a way to practice typing without electronics. While it does have very basic typing activities and a small example keyboard, there is no to scale keyboard or one even close that they could use to practice.

I had my daughter work through this book last year to learn how to type. Worked perfectly!

Bought this to use with the homeschool kiddos! Today’s kids are not learning proper positions on the keyboard and it’s unfortunate! I love that this method of teaching is 100 % independent of needing to be on line. You just open any word doc and get started. It’s simple. It’s direct. I recommend it!
