learn to type

" Practice, practice, practice. Touch-typing is a tricky skill to master, but once you have got you fingers in the correct position on the keys and have your posture lined up nicely, the only way to improve is through practice. Take some time every day to practice touch typing and work on your speed and accuracy. Over time, your WPM will steadily increase. If you can set aside just ten minutes a day where you open a document and type without stopping, you will notice you make fewer and fewer errors each time.[9] Image titled Type Faster Step 11 2 Practice with some online games.

If you don't know what to type, one good way to practice is by listening to something and typing it out as you go. There is no end to sort of thing you could type, and this could be a good way to make practising more fun if you listen to something interesting, like an ebook, a lecture online, or a radio talk show. Even a TV show could work, so be imaginative and try to make practice fun. Image titled Type Faster Step 13 4 Monitor your progress. Re-test yourself and keep track of your score for each week. You'll soon notice a gratifying upward trend. But don’t get too obsessed with your WPM score, think about how comfortable you are and how much easier you are finding it to type quicker. "
