Teeline is a shorthand system developed in 1968 by James Hill,[1] a teacher of Pitman Shorthand.[2] It is accepted by the National Council for the Training of Journalists, which certifies the training of journalists in the United Kingdom.[2]
It is mainly used for writing English within the Commonwealth of Nations, but can be adapted for use by other Germanic languages such as German and Swedish. Its strength over other forms of shorthand is fast learning, and speeds of up to 150 words per minute are possible,[3] as it is common for users to create their own word groupings, increasing their speed.[2]
