I am looking to purchase a typing tutor program for my 11 year old daughter. Can anyone recommend a good one at a reasonable price?

i would say chatting to people is the best way to learn to type.. fast easy and FREE! but for your daughter don't think it's a good idea.. stick with the mavis program :-)

TypingMaster Pro (http://www.typingmaster.com/index.asp?go=products) is my favorite.
