Touch, Type, Read & Spell (TTRS)

First introduced by Westgate Computer Centre in March 2009, TTRS is proving extremely successful as a means of learning how to type. Children and adults struggling with dyslexia and other learning difficulties are fining it very beneficial as it teaches touch-typing while at the same time improving spelling and reading. For more information check out the founding company's web site at www.ttrs.co.uk.

Ealing Dyslexia Association

"After ten weeks, the students' confidence, self-esteem, motivation, concentration and ability to work independently have increased .... These are no longer the students who couldn't spell but (are) the students who CAN type." INCLUSION - A celebration of good practice in Ealing.

Rate = €25 per hour or €22 per person for families or €20 per person for groups.
