Typing Software ???

Question

Friend of mine fancy learning typing & I wonder if anyone around could possibly recommend me the one that teaches TYPING (not TEST the speed), from very begining.

First stage of typing such as learning one line such as "asdf (space) ;lkj" & then the next one such as "qwert (space) poiu". Finally the bottom line, i.e. "zxcv (space) mnb". This is how I learnt it.

Is there any software that teaches typing by getting us used to with one line at a time & then practicing text all over ???

mavis becon typing tutor is good! alot of school use it to teach kids to type as well. There are a number of speed test, sentence test (like ur looking for) etc....

Why not try getting a book and typing a page or to, then read it again to check the spelling. It would be free and is more like a real world scenario.

Hope this helps

Mavis Bramston is I think the most common.
However your most cost effective one is:

I have Bought many Cosmi products and they have great support, and great products.
