The learning environment at Pitman Training is excellent. It is friendly and supportive and it enables me to really focus on the course.

 

The course itself is well structured and it quickly gets you to a stage where you really feel you are making progress and can type. The phasing with which the programme introduces new characters feels sensible and the programme uses sequences of characters in building blocks, coupled with repetition to build speed and accuracy.

 

 The course has certainly been of great benefit to me. I now feel confident that I can type properly and that it will keep improving with time and practice.
