Typing Instructor Gold for Mac, Version 22 (Digital Only)
Finally—a typing program that doesn't make you cringe! If you've ever suffered through clunky, childish, or downright annoying typing programs, we feel your pain. That's exactly why we went on the hunt for something better—and Typing Instructor Gold delivered.
This isn't just another game disguised as learning. It's a no-nonsense, highly customizable typing program that helps kids (and adults) build real typing skills—fast.
- Tailored lesson plans and progress tracking
- Smart “dynamic learning” that targets weak spots automatically
- Create custom lessons and typing plans
- Dictation feature for listening + typing practice
Some selections are better than others—feel free to skip around until you find what works for your family.
Not everything's perfect (we'd rather skip the cheesy arcade games and the questionable soundtrack), but the good news is: you can. Turn them off and move on. The core instruction stays rock-solid.
And here's the kicker: a solid typing foundation makes everything easier—from writing assignments to future job skills.
Typing Instructor Gold is the most efficient, flexible, and tolerable way we've found to teach this essential skill.
How to Use Typing Instructor Gold
- Step 1: Load It and Breathe a Sigh of Relief
Once installed, the program opens up a buffet of typing plans—choose one based on your child's age, skill level, and tolerance for quirky graphics. There's even a kid-specific plan, or you can go full DIY with custom lessons. - Step 2: Pick Your Weekly Typing Rhythm
No rigid schedule here. Use it when it works for you, but we suggest aiming for 3 lessons a week. That's enough to build real progress without turning typing into a chore. - Step 3: Let the Program Do the Heavy Lifting
Thanks to its "dynamic learning" tech, Typing Instructor Gold automatically zeroes in on your child's weak areas and serves up extra practice—so you don't have to hover or micromanage. - Step 4: Customize Like a Boss
Want to add your own music? You can. Want to create your own lessons? Also yes. Want to avoid those arcade games entirely? Absolutely. Turn them off and carry on. - Step 5: Try the Dictation Feature (You'll Be Impressed)
Your child can practice typing by listening to passages read aloud. Some are better than others, so feel free to preview and pick the ones you like. It's a surprisingly effective skill builder—and a great way to boost listening and accuracy.
Bonus Tip: Let Typing Replace Handwriting (Sometimes)
If your child dreads writing because he's slow with a pencil, let him type his assignments. Build keyboard skills now, tackle handwriting separately later, and watch the writing frustration fade.
Typing Instructor Gold isn't flashy—it's just the most effective, flexible, and tolerable way to teach typing we've found. And trust us, we've seen many of the alternatives.

When it works
Jamie M.
I accidentally purchased the digital version for Mac and I regret it. The program itself is great. Getting it to work is on the other hand is the real trick. Some days it works and others it just freezes up and won't do anything. The kids can not do any of the other ports on the program or it will freeze, so they are stuck doing only one port. I went ahead and ordered the CD version, hoping it will work much better.
