TTRS (Touch-type Read and Spell) is a structured program designed to help learners of all ages develop touch-typing skills while reinforcing reading and spelling patterns. It combines multi-sensory learning with personalized progress tracking, making it suitable for beginners and learners who benefit from additional guidance.

TTRS consists of 24 levels, each made up of 31 modules. Each module contains sets of words grouped by spelling patterns. Students practice typing these patterns using the correct fingering for touch-typing. At the end of every four modules, there is a dictation module to reinforce patterns previously introduced.

The first eight modules of Level 1 include multi-sensory tuition to establish touch-typing skills, which are then acquired in the first two levels.

Each student is given a personal access login and can review their record of accomplishment and progress with ease.

The course begins with CVC (Consonant ­Vowel ­Consonant) words and progresses through the word lists used in the text­book Alpha to Omega by Dr. Beve Hornsby and Frula Shear.

The keyboard and screen may be adjusted for sensory comfort and to provide support.

This course is particularly helpful for learners who need to build phonemic awareness. By engaging the skill of touch-typing, it provides an additional avenue of tactile learning. Touch-typing is an important skill for many dyslexic individuals and others with literacy difficulties, helping them gain confidence and fluency in reading and writing.
