hi Joe. Yes this is part of the answer but I would like to encourage this guy to use propper fingering as well and then hopefully he will end up typing faster than he ever could struggling to see the keyboard with failing sight.

On the mac, running Voice over, you can press a keystroke after which, any or most of the keys when pressed, are announced rather than sent to the operating system. don't know about typing tutors though, some time ago I did have some details, but I haven't seen them for a while. If you don't get anywhere, which I doubt will happen, drop me a note, and i will ferret about.
