Helped my 10 year boy improve his typing. But he eventually lost interest in it. Buy the latest version.


5 out of 5 stars Great Beginner Tool   April 4, 2008

The shipping came much faster than I thought and the wrapping was very secure. The cd was brand new and not only does the cd include a typing test it also displays a report card for the children on their speed and accuracy. After a a certain level is completed on the typing test then they have games to reinforce what was practiced. I am very pleased and will be using this company again.

I purchased this program for my 9 year old granddaughter. I used to teach Computer Application at an elementary school and this program closely resembles the typing program we used. She will be learning and typing like a pro in no time. We have several other Jumpstart programs and the quality is wonderful in them as well. Thanks, Lauren

1 out of 5 stars Jumpstart typing is not for beginners   November 20, 2004

I ordered jumpstart typing to teach my child to type. It seems it is only for practice. Immediately they have your child practice combinations of letters, and never introduce them one at a time. The children can not access the games until they demonstrate a certain level of competancy (they need to type letter combinations over and over- even I was bored and I can type.) I thought the games were supposed to help them learn. I am very disappointed in this software and do not recommend it to anyone
