Hello, 
I am a TVI working with students Middle and High School level. I am using with a lot of success the software called Talking Typer for Windows.  It is simple and the students can work independently.  My students look forward to use the program; however, time could be an issue.  Especially if your students are highly academic.  It is difficult, to find time during the school day to do the lessons!
Let me know if you have any more questions, 
Jordana

Hi!  My name is Denise Millette and I am from Georgia.  I am in my last semester of my Master's program to become a TVI.  I am doing my practicum and would like to get some advice and ideas from those who have experience in the field.  I have a couple of students learning keyboarding skills.  They have a program that helps teach a couple of letters/keys at a time but what techniques have any of you used to make sure they are utilizing the correct finger positioning?
Any advice on good OCR software for paperwork?
I am also interested in any other good resources for visually impaired teachers specifically those working with students with visual impairments.
Thanks in advance!
Denise
