What is Teeline Shorthand?
Teeline
is based on the alphabet - click here for more information
It is based on the alphabet – most vowels are omitted and you would be surprised how easy it is to read longhand without vowels – try it:

Teeline Outlines are easy to learn as they are just a shortened version of the longhand alphabet – no confusing squiggles to decipher. Here is an example of some of the Teeline alphabet
We can then put the outlines together to make words, phrases and sentences - like this:

here to view the three different levels of membership available| Levels and features |
|---|
SilverThis is basically a 'work on your own' membership level with very little support from us. You are able to access all of the lessons whenever you wish and work on them at any time. You will be able to access the answers to all of the exercises except for the assignments. You will not be able to send any of your work to us for marking. You can of course, upgrade whenever you wish. The full features of this level are explained in the table below. |
GoldThis level will suit you if you want more support. At the end of each lesson is an assignment comprising of three parts. You can send us these assignments and we will assess them and return them to you - with suggestions on how to improve any of your Teeline outlines, or how to write them more quickly. We will offer you suggestions on how you could group your outlines or position them differently. If you are struggling with any particular areas we will help you with these, as well as helping you with any specific words within your own area of work that you will use frequently. On completion of your tenth assignment we will issue a certificate to confirm that you have successfully completed the online course. There are no time limits with our Gold level - you can take as long as you like to complete it - we will leave you alone to get on with it 'in your own time'! The full features of this level are explained in the table below. |
PlatinumThis is a much more structured approach to ensure the student completes the course within an agreed timescale. We understand that sometimes it's hard for students to remain motivated when they have lots to study and have extra, optional subjects. This level offers the chance for students to be contacted regularly so we can encourage them and help with their progress. We will contact each student on a regular basis (e.g. weekly, two weekly, monthly) to: Check how the student is doing; request submission of their next assignment; set targets of speeds that the student should be achieving at each stage; remind students of special outlines and phrases they should know; suggest high speed cuts for the students' own vocabulary; record special dictations including the students' own vocabulary. For corporate customers we also allow you to transfer the course to any other new employees as long as no assignments have been completed. This is extremely beneficial if an employee leaves without starting the course or sending any assignments for marking. |

Important!
Before you sign up to any online Teeline course - be sure that the organisation can prove that they are accepted by the Teeline Partnership and have had their course and its methods of learning approved. Sites that do not have official recommendation or approval from the Teeline Partnership are unlikely to be deemed acceptable by the NCTJ or other such organisations. Many online Teeline courses are being sold without the approval or the agreement of the Teeline Partnership who own the copyright to Teeline shorthand. Protect yourself and your money.
Teeline Education Limited was incorporated in 1971 and The Teeline partnership is the successor body to that company.
The Teeline Partnership has approved this Teeline Online course and acknowledges that it has met their standards and is therefore an effective online learning system.
