5.0 out of 5 stars TurboTyping is the best!, June 20, 2002

By 

Kris J. (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: IMSI TurboTyping (CD-ROM)

TurboTyping has really helped me improve my typing. The training feature is great! It tracks my typing in everyday use and I forget it's even there working to help me improve my typing. The customized lessons help me see where I need improvement and show me what keys I need to practice to become a better typist. I have already increased my typing speed and accuracy! It's an easy to use, practical and straightforward program that really produces great results. I highly recommend it!

3.0 out of 5 stars not much of use, March 24, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: IMSI TurboTyping (CD-ROM)

I thought of presenting this to some one who does not even
know how to use appropriate fingers for typing.
To my disappointment, it does not teach what fingers that
you should be using. It is too simple software, not much of use.
