Typing for Teens

**COVID-19: Please note that in-person program sessions have been put on pause in response to COVID-19 guidelines and restrictions.

About Typing For Teens

Our six-week-long Keyboarding program will provide a comfortable and receptive environment where youth can acquire typing skills.

Why should teens learn how to type?

  • Keyboarding is becoming a standard skill that is used regularly.
  • Being familiar and comfortable with typing can aid with concentration, reduce the stresses associated with school work and assist the child in recognizing and identifying their accomplishments.
  • Typing helps students with learning disabilities who have difficulties with fine-motor, visual-motor and visual-spatial tasks.

Eligibility

Teens ages 15 – 17 years old who:

Have a learning disability and/or AD(H)D and wish to improve their typing skills

or

Do not have an LD but would like to improve their typing skills.

Location

North York

Parent Testimonial

“My daughter took the keyboarding class this winter. Both of her instructors immediately realized she was an auditory learner and responded accordingly. Her instructors gave me regular feedback on her progress and also provided suggestions on activities she could do at home to further practice her newly developing skills.”

– Shelly
