Class Experience

Students will learn the keyboard layout, correct keyboarding skills learning finger placement on the keys, through fun, engaging typing activities. We will be using abcya.com and other typing websites designed for children. We will discover through videos the history of the keyboard and review typewriters through history and how the keyboard was coined from the typewriter. Beginners will learn hunt & peck style typing to remember the keys, while the older students will type sentences and paragraphs to increase their words per minute. No experience is required.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
An account is not required for our typing activities and we use highly rated educational websites. Typingclub is used nationwide in schools to help our students learn typing, however, some of the younger students have not been introduced to it. I encourage starting typing lessons in Kindergarten, where some school settings begin their students on this website in the 2nd grade. This is a website where the students can work from home and upgrade their skills once they are introduced to it.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I am Ms. P. and I have been teaching students computer science skills and academics for over twenty years. I am so grateful to my families who sign up for my classes. I know the importance of the role of technology in everyday learning and once the students take my classes, my parents see how useful these classes are. 
I teach typing, coding, math, science, engineering and computer arts with fun themes that the students engage with like Minecraft, Unicorns and more. I also teach the Google programs so your child becomes familiar with how to type a book report or create a slideshow for school projects. Computer artists work for Google, Microsoft and Apple. Coders work for Minecraft and create video games and animation for movies. Computer programmers even make our appliances work these days. When your child learns computer science skills early in life it helps them to succeed in the digital world and sets them up for their future school years ahead and eventually a career. My passion and energy during my lessons, I hope, will create great memories for your child for years to come.
