Hi
I have used Lily Walthers program as you described with a low vision adult
and it was very helpful.

I have a similar situation. I contacted Lily Walters
http://www.aboutonehandtyping.com and she suggested attempting her program
by dictating the lessons she created in the manual, as her CD does not
include audio. Her suggestion is to use a regular or child sized keyboard
(depending on the reach your student has). I also agree with the sticky keys
suggestions within this thread. I hope this information helps. I plan to try
her methods very soon as I do not want my student to become dependent on
speech-to-text software at a relatively young age. I fear he may start to
lose spelling and grammar skills if introduced too early to speech-to-text
options.

about a program that can help her typing.  If you have any suggestions or
resources, please let me know.  Maybe you know of someone that has used JAWS
with one hand keyboard.  I do know about the Braille Note with one hand
mode. Iam hoping that could be an option.
