Getting Started

Is Meta Typing Club free to use?

Yes, every lesson is free. Every lesson, language, badge and certificate is free for learners, parents and teachers, on a Free plan that never expires. Optional paid Plus and Pro plans remove ads for the account holder and add extras, and a parent's or teacher's Pro plan also removes ads for the children or students it covers. Schools can choose a paid plan too and pay by card through PayPal, or by invoice.

What languages and keyboards can I learn to type in?

Meta Typing Club supports English and multiple international languages. Each has a full curriculum from beginner to advanced, and right-to-left languages use native right-to-left layouts.

What is the difference between student, teacher, and parent accounts?

Meta Typing Club has four roles: Student, Teacher, Parent, and Admin. Students practice and track progress, Teachers create classes and assignments, Parents connect and follow their children, and Admins manage the platform. One account can hold more than one role, so you can be both a teacher and a parent.

For Students

What does Real Accuracy mean, and why is mine low?

Real Accuracy measures how often you hit the correct key on the first try, before any corrections. Accuracy measures the final text after fixes. You can reach 100% Accuracy by fixing every mistake, but Real Accuracy stays honest because it only counts first-try keystrokes, so it reflects true typing skill.

How is my typing progress saved and tracked?

Your progress is saved automatically as you complete lessons. With an account, your stars, completed lessons, speed, and accuracy sync across devices. Without an account, progress is kept in your browser only, so it can be lost if you clear your browser data or switch devices.

How are stars and ratings calculated after a typing lesson?

After each lesson you earn 1 to 5 stars based on three things: accuracy, words per minute, and Real Accuracy. Higher performance earns more stars. Five stars need 85%+ accuracy, 20+ WPM, and 50%+ Real Accuracy. Stars mark which lessons you have mastered.

What are badges and points, and how do I collect them?

You earn points and badges automatically as you type. Every finished lesson adds points, while streaks, accuracy and speed records, and completing whole tracks unlock badges. Badges range from Common to Legendary, and your points build your overall rank. Open Achievements from your profile menu to see everything you have collected.

For Teachers

How does a teacher create a typing class and add students?

From your teacher dashboard, open the Classes tab and click Create Class. Give the class a name, then save it. You will get an invite code to share with your students, or you can create student accounts directly. Each student who joins appears on your roster right away.

How does a teacher create a typing assignment and assign it to students?

How can a teacher track each student’s typing progress?

How does a parent add and connect their child’s account?

Schools & Organizations

Can a school or classroom use Meta Typing Club for typing lessons?

Yes. Schools and classrooms can use Meta Typing Club with a dedicated school account: classes, rosters, assignments and progress reports for every teacher. It starts with a 60-day free Pro trial and a Free plan that never expires, and paid Plus and Pro plans are there if your school needs more seats.

Is Meta Typing Club safe and private for children?

Yes. Meta Typing Club is designed for children to use safely. We never sell user data. No ads on Plus and Pro plans for the account holder, and none for a child covered by a parent's or teacher's Pro plan or by a school's paid plan. Kids can sign in with a username instead of an email, and teachers or parents create and control those accounts. Children only see typing lessons and their own progress.

How much does Meta Typing Club cost for a school?

A school can use Meta Typing Club free: a 60-day free Pro trial with no limits, then a Free plan that never expires. If you need more, paid plans start with Plus (up to 300 active students) and Pro (up to 1,000), billed monthly or yearly — and yearly costs the same as two months, saving about 83%.

Is Meta Typing Club free for schools?

Yes — schools start free. Every school gets a 60-day free Pro trial with no limits and no payment details, then moves automatically to a Free plan that never expires: 3 teachers, 3 classes, 3 active assignments and 9 students per class. If your school needs more, paid School Plus and School Pro plans add seats and remove ads — pay by card through PayPal, or by invoice or purchase order.

How many teachers can a school have on the free plan?

On the Free plan a school can have 3 teachers, 3 classes, 3 active assignments, and 9 students per class. During the 60-day free Pro trial none of these limits apply. Going over a limit never deletes anything: the extras are paused until you choose which ones stay active.

What happens when the school trial ends?

Nothing is lost. After the 60-day free Pro trial your school moves automatically to the Free plan and keeps its account, members, classes, assignments and all progress history. The Free plan limits then apply — and if your school needs more, you can upgrade to a paid School Plus or School Pro plan at any time.

What is a school account on Meta Typing Club?

A school account is a shared workspace that holds your teachers, students, classes and assignments under one school name, with its own roles, settings and reports. It starts with a 60-day free Pro trial and then stays on a Free plan forever. Individual teacher, parent and student accounts still work exactly as before; a school account simply puts them under one roof.

How do I set up a school account?

Sign up, choose the School option, then complete the short setup wizard: your school name, its ownership type (private, public or government, non-profit, or homeschool family), an optional district name, and the consent checkbox on the last step. The school is created immediately and your 60-day free Pro trial starts at that moment.

Which types of schools can use Meta Typing Club?

Any of them. Private schools, public and government schools, non-profits and NGOs, and homeschool families or co-ops can all create a school account. You choose your ownership type during setup, and it only changes small details such as who is named as the account holder.

How do students log in without an email address?

Teachers can create student accounts that log in with a username instead of an email. From your dashboard, add a student, enter their name, and the system generates login credentials you share with the child. This is ideal for young learners and classrooms where students do not have their own email.

How do I import students from a CSV file?

Open the school dashboard, go to the student import wizard, and upload a CSV of your roster. The wizard maps your column headers, shows a preview of exactly what will be created, flags duplicates and conflicts before anything is saved, and then creates the accounts in one go with printable login cards.

Do teachers see the whole school roster?

A school has five roles: School Owner, School Admin, Staff, Teacher and Student. The Owner controls everything, including deletion and transfer; School Admins manage people, classes and settings; Staff get read-only oversight; Teachers run their own classes; Students practise and complete assignments.

Should I suspend a student or remove them?

Suspend when someone is coming back, remove when they have left for good. Suspension is calendar-based: you set a start and an end date, the account is paused in between, and it reactivates itself automatically on the end date. Removal takes the person out of the school but never deletes their personal typing history.

What happens if I delete my school?

A deleted school goes into an archive for 90 days, and during that window the School Owner can recover it with everything intact. After 90 days it is purged permanently and cannot be restored. Only the School Owner can delete a school, and members' personal accounts are never deleted with it.

Which languages can a school use?

Schools can teach typing in English and multiple international languages. Each language has its own complete curriculum, and right-to-left languages use native right-to-left layouts. Teachers pick the language per assignment, so different classes can practice different languages at the same time.

Is a school account safe for children's data?

Yes. A school only ever sees the students in its own school, never another school's. Student accounts created by a school do not require an email address, nothing is sold, and the person who sets the school up accepts the consent terms once and is emailed a copy of exactly what they agreed to.

Billing, Privacy & Trust

Is Meta Typing Club free forever, or will I have to pay later?

Every lesson stays free, so you never have to pay to keep practising. Paying is optional: Plus and Pro plans for students, parents and teachers remove ads and add extras. New accounts get a 7-day Pro trial with no card that ends on Free by itself. Schools can pay by card through PayPal, or by invoice.

Do you show ads or sell my personal data?

We never sell, rent, or trade your personal data to anyone. On ads: no ads on Plus and Pro plans for the account holder, and ad-free too for every learner covered by a parent's or teacher's Pro plan or by a school's paid plan. Your typing results and account details stay private to you and the people you connect, like a teacher or parent.

Technical & Troubleshooting

Which browsers and devices does Meta Typing Club work on?

Meta Typing Club works on any modern browser: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. There is nothing to install, just open the site and start typing. For the smoothest practice, keep your browser updated to the latest version, since older versions can miss key features or run slowly.

Why is there no sound when I type, and how do I fix it?

Typing sounds are controlled by a sound toggle in the top bar. If you hear nothing, first make sure the toggle is switched on, then check that your device volume is up and your browser tab is not muted. Some browsers also block audio until you click once on the page.

My typing progress did not save — how do I get it back?

If you practiced without signing in, your progress is stored only on that device and browser, so clearing your browser data or switching devices can lose it. Create an account or sign in before you practice so your stars, streaks, and lesson history are saved to your profile and follow you everywhere.
