About

Touch typing holiday and weekend courses for children at Richmond and Hillcroft Adult Community College

Learn to touch type in your holidays. TypeQuest offers fun and engaging courses for children aged 7-13 in your local area.

Touch Typing is the skill of finding the keys of the keyboard with the sense of sight rather than looking for the keys. Once touch typing becomes automated, the learner will be able to focus on other aspects of their work. Touch typing is a great life skill for all, it is particularly beneficial to children with dyslexia, dysgraphia and other handwriting-related learning needs. We use the latest touch typing software in our courses and as part of the course, the learner will be issued with a software licence. With this licence, the user will be able to log into their profile from any device and any location.

 

Why learn to touch type?
Touch Typing is fun and quick to learn. It is a fantastic life skill with measurable
advantages for further education and beyond. Learning a new skill will boost confidence
and self-esteem in children. Pupils will be able to produce twice the amount of work in
less time. Typing becomes more accurate and less time is spent on editing.
Being able to touch type frees the brain to focus on other aspects of work like content and
creativity. It will help children with dyslexia and other handwriting-related learning needs.
It will help to produce legible and presentable work.

 

Touch Typing Courses are £125 each and are comprised of tuition, the typing software valid for 1 year and the use of the IT equipment.

 

Public parking is available just behind the Richmond and Adult Community College TW9 2RE, there is an onsite cafe available at the college and lifts are available for wheelchair access.
