I'd like to share with you a friendly, fun typing program designed by and for blind students. It's called Talking Typing Teacher, and it comes from a company called Marvel Soft.
As far as I know, this program is not available from American Printing House, and is not available on federal quota. With federal quota funds, you can borrow a program called Talking Typer from APH. But if you don't have access to federal quota funds, or if you can afford to get something a little more glitzy, Talking Typing Teacher is what I'd recommend! I usually try to recommend economical ways to teach, but I bought this program for Peter when it was a real stretch, and I'm glad that I did.
Talking Typing Teacher uses pre-recorded human speech, including enjoyable characters, Eager Eddie and Clever Karen. It is very student-friendly, and a great way for your student to learn to type!
If you are buying the program for your home, Marvel Soft charges $99.95 plus $5.00 shipping.
