You can choose your own style of learning, and even customize the lessons to suit your skill level. In addition to Typing Tutor 9 and Captain Keyboard--which are filled with effective lessons and fun games--this reference suite also includes Talk to Me, a full-featured talking program that reads everything to you, from e-mails to Web pages and documents. The fourth CD-ROM is Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus, Fourth Edition, which allows you to point and click on words in applications for quick definitions and a list of synonyms.
With Typing Tutor 9, users can choose from two learning styles: a traditional approach, or the Conceptual Effects Typing Method (CETM), which focuses on teaching the entire keyboard in 10 sequential lessons. This methodology is perfect for all ages and skill levels, and the drills allow you to quickly master the position of each key on the keyboard. Then use Captain Keyboard to learn how to type in an intergalactic environment where your skills are needed to conquer the galaxies.

I managed to install Typing Tutor (CD1) and get it to run on Windows XP after using the compatibility settings. But amazingly, the program that was installed is Typing Tutor 7, not TT 9 as the box and the CD face indicates. I'm not happy about this because it's completely false advertisement! I hope it is only a rare instance. After finding this out, I lost all desire to install the rest of the 3 CD's.
Rating: - its a good one but with installing problems
as one of the reviewer said, there is installation problem with the cd but you can still work with it. other wise no other problem
the other problem with package is that you need to register talk to me software and i was not able to register it and I cant use talk to me software.
Rating: - Best Typing Software Ever!
The package may say "Instant" typing and most of you may think that it's the comapny's name but let me tell you I learned to type in less than 30 seconds! Thats faster than instant oatmeal!
Rating: - Do not buy it - it's useless
It does not work under Windows XP (probably the same applies for Windows 2000), just would not install. Who has Win 95 or 98 on their computer these days?! I still have those useless CDs laying in my flat...
Rating: - Don't buy this product
I'm unable to install this software. It says it needs QuickTime. While installing QuickTime, error comes as "Not enough disk space" I have 70GB of free disk space.
