Individual Software Announces Typing Instructor Web for Kids - the New & Innovative Way for Kids to Learn to Type Online for Schools & Individuals

Pleasanton, CA, January 18, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Individual Software, a leading publisher of educational software, announces the release of TypingInstructorWeb for Kids, the new and innovative way for kids to learn to type online. TypingInstructorWeb for Kids gives students 24/7/365 access to online typing instruction simply by logging in with their user name and password. This online typing solution is based on the award-winning #1 Selling Typing Program, Typing Instructor Platinum for Kids.

“This online solution is specifically designed for kids ages 6 to 12, and gives instructors and teachers complete online management of their typists and classes,” says Jo-L Hendrickson, president and CEO of Individual Software. “We can provide TypingInstructorWeb for Kids in a fully customized and branded Private Label Website for any learning community.”

According to Mary Horton, Resource Teacher at Oak Grove School in California, “This program is the ideal solution we have been looking for – a program that reinforces learning in the classroom and can also be accessed off campus so students can continue their learning and practice from home.”

TypingInstructorWeb for Kids has 11 Typing Plans kids can choose from, including a Typing Plan for Ages 8 to 9, a Home Row Plan, the Suggested Typing Plan, and more. Educators and administrators have all the tools and reports they need to manage and measure typist progress and assign grades.

In addition to the proven educational methods, the software offers fun, multi-level typing games. Games are designed to teach specific typing skills, such as speed, accuracy, rhythm, dexterity, and retention. Games can be played with just the keys the typist has learned, or kids can choose to play games at another skill level and advance to a harder level. They can also take a break from their Typing Plan and practice typing their favorite stories from classic literature or fairy tales.

In addition to schools, TypingInstructorWeb for Kids is also available for consumers on a subscription basis. To subscribe, visit www.typinginstructorkids.com.
