Philosophy

Roller Typing, offers a creative approach to fast and accurate typing. Designed by a group of elementary school teachers, Roller Typing teaches and reinforces typing skills.  Increasingly, teachers require their students to submit their school assignments in a typed format.  Proper keyboarding skills, therefore, are more important than ever – and not just in school; typing proficiency is a key ingredient to success in the business world.

Many children as well as adults still “hunt and peck” on the keyboard. This inefficient habit is a tough one to break. Roller Typing combats this problem in a fun and engaging way, requiring students to learn proper fingering techniques and to develop speed and rhythm in both timed and un-timed situations.  And as typing skills improve, self esteem increases.  Roller Typing is a winning program for today’s students.
