2015 Verityping touch typing courses take place at Sunbury Manor School, Nursery Road, Sunbury-on-Thames TW16 6LF
Easter and Summer Holiday Touch typing courses in 2016
Who is the course for?
Following the success of the holiday courses in the past thirteen years, open to the whole family, we continue to offer courses for
anyone aged between seven and a hundred and seven. Those with touch typing experience who wish to improve, beginners, those with
or without learning difficulties - all are welcome. The choice of software ensures something for everyone. Anyone with previous
touch typing experience will start at their level. This course is recommended by the Richmond Dyslexia Association. If your child is
below the age of seven or has considerable learning difficulties please consult the course leader before booking them on a course.
The course leader
The course leader is both a qualified teacher of those with learning difficulties and an experienced touch typing instructor.
Why touch type?
Touch typing is invaluable to everyone because of the universal use of computers in schools, colleges and at home and work, but even
more so for anyone with learning difficulties. For them it can be a breakthrough – giving them a tool to communicate and express their
thoughts freely. Touch typing means typing without looking at the keys and can be extremely fast and accurate. It need not take a long
time to become proficient. Touch typing frees up sections of the brain to think - and once mastered, is easy and faster than
handwriting. It also helps with spelling, as words are learned as finger patterns. Sequencing of the letters in a word is easier and of
course there is no problem with the orientation of the letters.
When and for how long?
The course is taken over four mornings. For those who are very little, have severe learning or concentration difficulties, private lessons
might be the better option. All courses will be held between Tuesday and Friday.
Where?
The courses will be held at Sunbury Manor School, Nursery Road, Sunbury-on-Thames TW16 6LF. Directions to this school can be
found on the website. All correspondence should be sent to the above address in Isleworth and NOT to Sunbury Manor School please.
Discounts and costs

booking fee per student for bookings received by February 15th 2016 for the Easter course or the June 6th 2016 for the summer course.
The cost for the course will be £215 unless the discounts apply. This is payable in advance. Spaces for the course will be allocated on
