Learn to Type or Improve Your Typing

Keyboarding (also called typing) is very important in today's culture. It's all about computers, emails, texting, and twittering. If you can't type or you type slowly, it's harder to get a job or succeed at work.

Would You Be Interested in Listening Lessons?

Technology changes fast!

Twenty years ago, CDs were the new thing. Now it is MP3 players.

And now MP3 players are pretty cheap.

(What does cheap mean? It means inexpensive.)

You can buy them for $20 or $30 dollars.

Many people have them.

Question: Would you be interested in English lessons for your MP3 player?

Please tell us if you are interested.

Maybe we can provide lessons like this for you in the future.

You can tell us your opinion about this in the comment section or you can tell us when you see us in Room 28 at the Adult School.
