Opening doors for my son
My 13 yr-old son has dysgraphia. For many years now, he has dictated his homeschool homework answers to me. We also work with dictation software for him to be able speak and create a document... After 6 months of using TTRS (about 3-4 days a week), he is now able to type! This will open so many doors for him. Thank you to TTRS!

Testimonials and reviews
Hear first-hand from our incredible community of users
Yvette, Parent of a gifted child with dysgraphia
My son has dysgraphia which affects his ability to write things out by hand. He also struggles with sensory issues, which means he can easily get distracted. I wanted him to learn typing because I didn’t want to see his creativity and ideas being hindered in any way. In TTRS he’s having to type a word over and over again, and seeing and hearing it as he goes. This means he’s actually learning how to spell the word too, which is making it much easier for him to write in all other areas of his academics.
This program is helping my child practice spelling words at the same time as she learns to type. It’s an accommodation for her dysgraphia and is boosting her confidence. We could't be happier with it!
