KAZ typing tutor’s multi-sensory program was designed especially for schools and further education. It was scientifically developed by the same team of experts responsible for producing over 55 RSA/NVQ level, computer and office skills courses.

Accelerated Learning

The team used a unique Accelerated Learning teaching method - the most advanced teaching and learning method in use today. It is a 'total system' for speeding and enhancing the learning process. Based on brain research, it has been proven time and again to increase learning effectiveness.

The course was designed to be used independently and without supervision.

  • The Method

    Unlike other typing tutors based on repetitive exercises and distracting games, KAZ teaches typing skills using specific combinations and progressions of just 11 words in 5 easily memorised, scientifically structured and trademarked phrases. Its multi-sensory approach engages the major senses of sight, sound and touch simultaneously, radically enhancing memory retention and recall - which is why it is so effective.

  • Brain Balance

    The unique method trains the fingers on both hands to work symmetrically and simultaneously, a direct result of both hemispheres of the brain working at the same time (brain balance). No other typing tutor works in this way.

  • Muscle Memory

    The method also builds muscle memory. With the repetition of real word vocabulary - reading, spelling and vocabulary are engrained to memory and spellings become a series of finger movements and patterns on a keyboard, dramatically reducing the likelihood of transposing and misspelling words.

City & Guilds Assured Edition

This new edition is the same as our Further/Higher Education edition but with an additional assessment module incorporating a Multiple Choice Paper and Typing Test.

Incentivise your students to complete our new City & Guilds Assured course, where on successfully completing the 6th and final module, they will receive a digital certificate and badge from a world recognised brand to showcase on their Social Media Profiles, CVs and job application forms.

Equip them with a portable 'life skill’ and an extra tool to help them gain employment.
