The flexible Teeline system of shorthand is based on the English alphabet, and gives students scope for developing their own style of writing. This student pack consists of one copy of each of three "Teeline Gold" books - the course book, the workbook and the word list.
This Teeline Gold edition of the Word List has doubled in size and contains recommended Teeline outlines for over 12,000 words which might be expected to occur frequently in non-technical material. New appendices of legal and medical words are included.
This student book includes an introductory section to outline important principles and theory to give students a firm foundation for learning. It provides a range of practice exercises to offer learners drill materials from 50 WPM to 100 WPM designed especially to build their speed and fluency.
Following on from the "Teeline Gold Course Book", this is intended to develop students' speed. The book should enable teachers to structure their classes, once they have introduced the basic Teeline theory, by reviewing and extending the theory. It also develops the theory of word groupings.
This is the companion to the "Teeline Gold Course Book". Linked chapter-by-chapter it provides additional Teeline practice material and longhand transcription to reinforce classroom learning, improve outline and develop speed.
This course book is designed for short courses of all kinds either in the classroom or for self-study. It contains sufficient theory to lay the foundation for higher speeds for students who chose to progress.
