About Typing Club:
Interactive Experience
Students learn to type in a fun environment. They watch videos, play games, and earn points to grab the highest spot on the scoreboard.
On-Screen Hand Guides
The virtual hand guides show students how to properly place their fingers on the keyboard. Students learn to mimic the virtual hand guides' movements and keep their eyes on the screen, helping them to break the infamous hunting & pecking habit.
Lesson Playback
