Good for teaching kids to type/keyboard. [Posted on 2008-09-28]
This software loaded perfectly and works flawlessly for my kids (middle school-age). They follow the lessons easily. The practice games are a little young for them, but they don't object to them. The games do reinforce the lessons and provide a bit of a fun break.
Fifteen minutes, three times/week seems to be a good routine; and they are progressing.
Buggy! [Posted on 2008-10-01]
I was disappointed in this product. I'd tried a free download of an earlier version and liked it...but this version seemed to have a bug that I couldn't avoid. At a certain point, it advanced me from one level to another far ahead, omitting many lessons that I needed. I tried many ways around this, but it always behaved the same way.

I purchased Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing for my 7 year old grandson. He loves it! He is now constantly using it and doesn't want to quit for anything. He is learning to type and having fun.

wonderful...my mother loves it [Posted on 2009-01-02]
I got this off Amazon.com for my mother, she's 55 years old and is just getting started with computers. She wanted to learn how to type and improve her typing skills and this has been helping her a lot. She loves it herself and I'm glad that she's happy with the product.
