Course programme
Pitman 2000 was introduced in the 1960s providing a simplified version of the already established Pitman New Era system. However, a little later came the bliss of Teeline introduced by James Hill from Nottingham. His Teeline was easier still as it was based on spelling and alphabet adaptations rather than phonetics.
You will find Teeline quick to grasp and after a few lessons you can be writing. Teeline shorthand is now the most popular version for beginners.
