They believe in today’s world of technology, teaching students the 3Rs is not enough. The invaluable ‘life skill’ of touch typing is also essential and should be made available and taught as early as possible, as it presents a huge advantage - preparing students for further education, the working environment and life.
As for students with special educational needs, touch typing can be a life changing tool - offering a new and powerful medium for learning and communicating and introducing them to an accessible academic world they can cope in and even excel in.
Developed with advice and guidance from the Dyslexia Research Trust, KAZ’s new ‘Mainstream’ and ‘Neurodiverse’ typing software is suitable for both mainstream students, as well as students with one or a combination of the following neurological differences: Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADHD, ASD, Tourette's, amongst others.
The program teaches typing skills whilst minimising disturbances related to visual stress by means of a unique 'Preference Screen' – tailor making the course to the individual’s needs for maximum visibility comfort. It uses a multi - sensory, unique and proven ‘accelerated learning’ teaching method incorporating both 'muscle memory' and 'brain balance' - which is why it is so effective.
It has proven so successful that it has been shortlisted as a Bett Awards 2019 finalist.
