ISED/typing program for visually impaired students

Hi,

We have several students in our school who have severe vision issues. One h=
as a very hard time seeing the screen even when it is magnified. The studen=
ts in grades 2-6 have been using free online typing tutors, but I am intere=
sted in buying a typing program and am particularly interested in one that =
provides oral commands so that these students with vision challenges can st=
ill be successful typers.

Can anyone recommend a program they've seen that might work? I looked onlin=
e and saw one but it is only for PC--we are a Mac school.

Thanks,
