I want to learn to touch type

27 replies

I type well enough to potter on MN , do emails and other stuff, but my typing is of the two main fingers variety; my job doesn't involve any typewritten/computer work.
However I am only working part time now, and would really like to gain some different skills as I'd like a change of job.
I'd like to be able to apply for call handler type jobs ( I have a proven track record of being able to handle difficult situations but not while typing at the same time!)

Can anyoe recommend a typing course? Preferable an online one, although I'd be open to attending an 'in person' one too.
Thanks!

There is a website called typing club and I get all my students to use it. A couple are super fast now

Thank you for this.

I'm in the Mavis gang too but the floppy I got her on is long defunct. I think the key is to JFDI. The apps all seem pretty similar, you just need to put a few hours in until you crack it. Personally I did it in a week when I was bored in the holidays, and I think that was probably more effective than trying to do 15 mins per day.
