• Should i switch to ten finger typing?

  You should absolutely continue learning 10 finger typing on typingstudy.com typing.com typingclub.com or keybr.com or whatever site you're using. Being slow and inaccurate is a temporary state that you go through whilst you're learning, yet everyone who asks the same question as you have phrases it in a way that makes it sound like it's a permanent state that they will never get out of i.e. Their destined to stay...

• Help me to increase my speed of typing

  First question is can you touch type? That means can you type without looking down at the keyboard. It doesn't matter how many fingers you use. It's never having to look that matters. If not I would recommend that you go to typingstudy.com or keybr.com. Source: 12 months ago

• What websites are best for getting better at typing?

  There are sites like typing.com, typingclub.com, ratatype.com, typingstudy.com and keybr.com which are all designed to help people learn to touch type. Their purpose is to take someone who has to look down at the keyboard and "hunt and peck" at the keys in order to type, and get them to the point where they don't need to look at the keyboard at all when they type.

• How long to get good form? Keep pressing key with whatever finger's nearest

  It depends. For me, it was two weeks. typingstudy.com was the one that let me do this; one lesson a day. I believe it was beneficial to start with only one key per finger and add a key per hand per lesson. No room for the old habits if you only use your eight home row keys without moving your fingers.

• Proper typing at age 40

  I prefer typingstudy.com because it starts with a rigorous finger position of only the home row. Your fingers are to only push, not to move. I believe that really helped me to get rid of my old style because there was no room for it to kick back in. After you get your first lesson done you add one or two keys per lesson. Still, not enough freedom for the old habit to creep in. A nice bonus is that I could use my... Source: over 1 year ago

• I’ve begun to trying to learn how to typing.

  Typingstudy.com is a free typing tutor. There are many others but I like that. keybr.com is probably a more popular alternative but I like the more home row centric approach of typingstudy. Source: over 1 year ago

• Hi everyone! I am in my 30s and have started using computers daily. I still sort of peck with only 3 or 4 fingers. What website would you recommend to someone like myself who wants to learn the correct way while getting faster and more accurate?

• Who would be willing to take my typing course?!

  Do you have other knowledge? Ergonomics is a big thing, so giving holistic lessons on workstations and typing would be good. In schools, they often have some other credentials for teaching kids. Otherwise, keybr.com and typingstudy.com make you pretty useless. Typing is not really that big of a sport to make living as a coach. Maybe online there would be room for one but there are no big bucks to be made. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How long should i train everyday to type faster and accurate?

  Typingstudy.com worked for me. It teaches you home row and with a self-taught bad style, it is very good that the first lesson is just pushing the right button without moving fingers. The next lesson adds one key on that at a time, so it is very restricted at the beginning which I consider the best way if you have pre-existing habits and muscle memory to do things wrong.

• Help pls

  Typingstudy.com is my recommendation because you have mastered a lousy style. You learn the home row in the first lesson and just hit the right key with the correct finger. Then you add one letter at a time to it building up on the right style. That makes it easier to do it right by not letting your bad habits kick in. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Finger assignment for Alt Gr characters in QWERTY

  How do you handle this? Do you go with Alt Gr + awkwardness or Alt + Shift for keys of the right hand? That would seem kinda intuitive as it would be similar to how Shift+ operates but typingstudy.com insists on only using the Alt Gr. Source: about 2 years ago

• Started learning/adopting the correct finger scheme today and it already feels like cheating

  Typingstudy.com makes you write ";" a lot and every time I do I get hyped. As a programmer, I have to place a lot of semicolons, and normally I need a lengthy movement for that as that is how my custom instinctive scheme is. Writing ";" got surprisingly thrilling. Source: over 2 years ago
