5 out of 5 stars Typing   October 5, 2008
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.


1 out of 5 stars Buggy!   October 1, 2008
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.


4 out of 5 stars Good for teaching kids to type/keyboard.   September 28, 2008
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.




4 out of 5 stars continues to be the best   September 26, 2008
Excellent software for my children under 12 years old. Quickly becoming adaptable to the keyboard


2 out of 5 stars Crappy   September 18, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

When you take a test even if you are still a beginner you are given all of the keys(that you haven't learned yet). Seriously don't buy it. I am very disappointed because Mavis was such a good product.
