Typing Tournament equips children (and adults) with the typing skills essential for daily living. This flexible keyboarding package teaches beginners, strengthens the competent and challenges the advanced (and it's loads of fun!).
Users begin a Medieval quest at the 'Alpine Peaks' and journey through 16 cool environments, building typing skills as they go. Each landmark introduces 4 new keys and includes an animated lesson, 3 action-packed typing games and lastly, a typing test to measure progress.
There are drill and practice incentives, things to collect, printable certificates and rewards at the end. It's a great way to master an essential real-world skill!
