KP Typing Tutor - Type faster and make fewer mistakes

KP Typing Tutor is like a friendly guide for anyone wanting to improve their typing skills. The look of the program is pretty simple and might seem old, but don't let that fool you. It's all about teaching you how to type well, and it does that job really well. The design might not be fancy, but it's easy to get around and start learning right away.

The program helps you in many ways. If you're new to typing, it has simple exercises to get you started. But if you're ready for more, you can work on typing whole paragraphs. It keeps things interesting with a variety of exercises. 

One of the fun parts is a game that reminds you of old-school video games where you defend a city. It turns typing practice into a game, making it more exciting. You'll be trying to type words quickly before they hit the bottom of the screen. Besides the game, there are also lessons with stories like "Alice in Wonderland" for those who want to practice with longer texts. 

Getting KP Typing Tutor is pretty easy, although you have to buy it. Setting it up and removing it later might leave behind some extra icons and folders, which can be a bit of a hassle. KP Typing Tutor may not have the latest looks, but it's packed with good lessons and a fun game to make typing practice enjoyable. It's a good choice for anyone looking to type better, faster, and with fewer mistakes.

Bottom Line

KP Typing Tutor works with both the common QWERTY layout and the DVORAK setup. You can switch between these easily, so it fits what you're used to. This program is designed to be super straightforward, which means kids, adults, and pretty much anyone can use it without getting stuck. It's built to run on a variety of Windows systems. This means a lot of different computers can handle this program without any trouble. If you want to type faster and make fewer mistakes or if you're just starting to learn typing, this program has something for you. It's especially good for busy people who have never had a typing class or for kids who like learning through games.
