Left Handed, Single Handed, Typing
This is a method that I developed for a hemiplegic girl who is now a very fast typist. She started using it at about the age of eight. She leaves anyone in her class well behind when she types. I believe we have a duty to teach such pupils an efficient method such as this one. Picking it up by hunting and pecking, is for a one-handed user, likely to lead to the adoption of an inefficient system. I actually observed this in a girl a little older who came to our authority – about age 15, who did not have the benefit of having been taught a system.
This is not a touch typing method. Pupils will need to look at the keys.
This was devised for a young user. A numbered version would be more suitable for an older user. However, getting started young is the answer!
