[Trainer-Talk] Typing/Keyboarding Training Program without Speech

[Tech Center]

Typio is visually the best I've seen for low-vision. The Talking Typing
teacher from Mavelsoft and Talking Typing thing form APH are ugly as
sin. And don't do large print well. The Marvel Soft stuff i basically
running a Windows 95 program from the 90s that's been duck taped
together since time and memorial. Typio is fresh and looks good. Its got
bugs, but I've always had the developer get back with me in the same
day, and he's an AT Trainer ata VA hospital I believe. You can shut off
the speech. Its got like a free 1 or two week trial so I'd give it a try.
