Why postpone any longer?

The training Blind Typing with Vision! is given on-demand to profit and non-profit companies.
Both group training and private training are possible.

Keyboard Layout
Both our Dutch and our English version of this training are using the QWERTY (US-International) keybaord layout. If your keyboard layout is largely different, you might consider consulting a different touch typing training provider - or you might consider purchasing different keyboards. To us, the keyboard layout is more important than whether you're located inside or outside of the Netherlands.

If it's more convenient to your organization, we can give our touch typing training at our training center in Utrecht. Please ask for an offer for your organization mailing to

Guaranteed: Touch typing within four hours!
Our training lasts four hours. At the end of the training you are able to accurately type every single key without looking at your keyboard. This is our Guarantee to you. (The only propositions are: one is motivated, one's touch sense and motorics are working, one doesn't have concentrational problems and one has at least some imagination / visualization ability).

Using both body and mind
To develop typing accuracy within four hours, one needs both mental and physical certainty about the positions of the keys. On the mental domain it's easily done with our listening and visualization exercises. But besides mental accuracy, to be an accurate typer also means: Developing the correct fingering and striking, plus a supportive bodily posture. On all mentioned aspects one gets individual attention and feedback while practicing.

High typing accuracy: Higher effective HPM
Our training results in a high typing accuracy. This accuracy makes the difference between Blind Typing with Vision! and other touch typing learning methods. Regardless of the method, anyone can develop about 250 Hits Per Minute just by using all ten fingers. But if one's hits are very inaccurate, a great deal of these 250 hits are mishits, backspace hits and delete hits. So, if one is inaccurate, 250 HPM make an effective HPM of about 100. To put it another way: With added accuracy, your typing productivity increases with a factor 2.5 and that's a lot!

How do we do it?
All we do is empower and facilitate the learning abilities of the attendees. In our training we use multimodal and enhanced learning principles plus mindfulness principles. Working skilfully with two factors - (1) attention and (2) being kind to oneself - explain why excellent results can be achieved in such a short time. Our method has been proven successful, and is largely based on empirical knowlegde about the functioning and the characteristics of the human mind and body. The training has a vivid character, and makes use of interaction, listening exercises, and imagination exercises.

Target group
You want the best possible result for your organization. But time is scarce. Surely, you and your collegues don't feel like attending a 'classical' typing class for 20 times or even more. Luckily, by means of our unique training, anyone can do the job in four hours. That's why many professional organizations within the Netherlands choose Blind Typing with Vision!

Assumed entry level
The assumed entry level that is required for a succesful attending: (1) Reasonable mastering of the English language; (2) the sensorimotor system of the fingers being intact, and (3) the absence of concentration problems. Furthermore, though the imagination exercises are rather simple, one must have at least (4) some imagionation / visualization ability for succesful attending.

 

 

Typing in a flow: your full attention available to what you're communicating
With the old 'two finger typing' you're waisting a lot of your attention (mental capacity) to finding and striking the keys. This means a lumber, not only to your eyes, arm and neck muscles (constantly switching between keyboard and monitor), but also for your mind. Why would you waist your attention any longer? Accurate ten-finger touch typing means (after it's automatized) that you are able to give all your attention to what you want to communicate with your typing. Doing your typing work in a flow means you get less stress (if any), and more satisfaction.

="I found the training really good and I've recommended it to many people already!" =

Mindfulness and New Learning

Our learning method has a pleasant character - that's what custumers have told us again and again. Surely we're not non-stop typing for four hours! Listening and visualisation exercises are being used, besides of easy and very relaxing bodily exercises. With our multi-modal method you'll develop great typing accuracy within four hours. Our method is fitted for motivated people older than 10 years of age.

="...this accuracy in just four hours time? It's proven to be possible! And all this in a pleasant, relaxed athmosphere." =

Unique and motivating
At the end of our four-hour training you're able to touch type: Without looking at your keyboard you're able to type the whole alphabet. This accuracy is unique for Blind Typing with Vision!, and appeals many people: Directly after the four-hour training, you're able to touch type alle possible words and sentences!

= To me, both fingering and bodily posture were important. These points were explained and instructed very well, so I can put it to practice. =

Higher typing rate and eight weeks Full Support

To maintain your accuracy and to increase your typing rate, in the weeks after the training, at a daily basis you practice 30 minutes, during 4 to 6 weeks. (which means 3,5 hours of practice per week). After 4 to 6 weeks, touch typing is automatized, just like walking or driving a car are automatized once you have mastered the skill. Automatizing means a quantum leap to your HPM (the number of Hits Per Minute). Might anyone need individual support: During eight weeks one has Full Support at ones disposal at no charge whatsoever.

  - Very useful training. I can say: I'm typing with confidence. Surely I'm gonna practice next weeks, so the skill will automize and I'll reach the speed I never reached with two fingers...


- I quite liked the touch typing training - it is amazing to see that you can learn the position of the keys within a few hours. The trainer is for sure a very enthusiastic fellow.


- I found the training really good and I've recommended it to many people already!


- The touch typing training was brilliant and I am writing to you with my new found skill. If not a little slowly at present - but practice makes perfect.


- With only a bit of extra work a day, I will be able to write blindly with 10 fingers... which is quite cool :)


- To me MBTT is a very effective typing training.
By the end of it I had confidence to type blindly.
