Touch-type Read and Spell (TTRS)

Touch-type Read and Spell (TTRS) is an online course that teaches typing, reading and spelling. It is designed to benefit students of all ages who experience spelling, reading or writing difficulties.

Our priority is to ensure that we can continue to offer places to students with conditions like dyslexia. While we would expect to have enough places, depending on demand, we may need to pass on any that haven’t been used in a good while.

The student can login online (at home or in the library or at school, etc). The course itself is highly recommended, but younger students will generally benefit from plenty of encouragement and direction. However, just to note that the course may not necessarily suit every student.
