Very simple, straight forward website that allows for typing practice and assessment

Learning how to type properly is an extremely important skill and Typing.com is a great resource for students to learn how to do so. They provide lessons, practice, assessments, and games to cater to all stages of learning, while keeping students engaged through providing interesting stories for them to type and educational games that they can play after learning lessons. Allowing students to set goals and expectations for themselves on the dashboard, which tracks and displays their progress, encourages students to stay consistent, as that is how they improve most efficiently at a skill like typing.

The website does get a little bit laggy. I noticed that the game would freeze and this may cause a delay when I play this with my students.

I appreciated how straightforward and simple it was to learn typing. I also enjoyed how we sometimes typed vertically and horizontally.
