Learning to type can be challenging for people with dyslexia, especially when visual disturbances, spelling difficulties, or working memory demands make traditional learning methods less comfortable. With the right support, however, learners can develop effective typing skills at their own pace.

KAZ Type Limited offers specialist SEND and dyslexia touch-typing software, developed in collaboration with the Dyslexia Research Trust. Its approach is designed to make learning more accessible, supportive, and confidence-building.

How KAZ Supports Learners with Dyslexia

KAZ uses an Accelerated Learning method based on the principle of ‘brain balance’, helping learners engage with typing through a structured and considered approach.

Key features include:

• Customisable preference screen: Adjusts the learning experience to help accommodate visual disturbances.

• Brain balance learning: Uses an Accelerated Learning teaching method to support skill development.

• Muscle memory development: Helps learners build familiarity with keyboard movements and reinforce spelling.

• Working memory support: Designed to avoid overloading working memory during the learning process.

• Family Edition word lists: Allows users to upload problematic words or spelling lists for additional practice.

• Confidence and self-esteem: Encourages learners to progress at a comfortable pace and recognise their achievements.
