#Mavis beacon teaches typing for windows 7 software
This program is now only available as a downloadable software license. We have used this program (in a much earlier version) in our homeschool, and found it highly effective, especially in building speed. Interspersed at appropriate times are quizzes, tests, and breaks for games to help you practice your skills and track your progress. The lessons are easy to complete, and a keyboard with semi-transparent hands at the bottom types along with you to show you which fingers should strike which keys. There are numerous user settings so you can select your goals, age, keyboard style, and music preferences (you can even import your own MP3 files). Each time you use the software, you pick up again where you ended previously. Summary reports keep track of speed, accuracy, words per minute, goals, and key proficiency, so you know exactly where you can improve. Arcade-style games are interspersed with the lessons to help switch up the practice. You can customize lesson plans based on age, typing ability, and progress. Mavis Beacon, your electronic teacher, keeps track of your progress, dynamically adjusts your progress based on performance, and guides you towards becoming a faster, more accurate typist. And it works, with a combination of lessons and motivating games - all of which are tailored to the user's skill level. One of the most popular software programs for learning and improving typing skills, this program's strength is that it is constantly challenging the user to improve their speed as well.
