Re: Mavis Beacon Teaches DVORAK Typing

Yes. Mavis Beacon starts with a test for your current Dvorak skills to place you in lessons at the right level (well, the 2011 Ultimate Mac Edition does anyway), and then tailors the lessons after that to present the keys and key combinations that you are not getting right. And there is a color map that shows the problem keys visually: keys you need to practice are in red, vs. ones you know adequately (in yellow) and know well (in green).
