HELP I SUCK AT TYPING

How did y'all people learn how to type? I can type without looking at the keyboard but I can't type with all 10 fingers (I only use the 2 pointers ;~;) MY GOAL IS TO ONE DAY TYPE AS FAST AS @LilaRok
K ty, <3 (Leela pls) Bai

 

My school used to fund a typing class where you improve your typing skills, which is why I type relatively quick.
My school is also computer-based, so everything we do has to involve typing something, which is a lot of practice. lol

 

Goddamit my school was like "POINTER FINGERS ARE OKAY TO TYPE WITH" YA SMA NOW IM LIKE A YEAR 3 OLD SPAMMING A KEYBOARD
I just wanna be Leela ;~;

 

In 6th grade, I did Edutyping.com and TypingWeb.com. Those two helped me and I think they can help you :)

 

Hmm... I used minecraft to help me. I jumped off of a cliff and if I didn't type fast enough I would die.

 

In 4th grade my school had us have typing classes for the first time.
Let's just say, it took me ~15 seconds to write a full sentence.

But now i'm in 7th grade, it just simply takes 2 seconds. Yay.

 

Typing is fast

 

Meh. My school had a typing class I took last year, but my teacher was too lazy to actually teach us. He retired this year.


When I am in the mood to type, I can go pretty quickly. Except my scores on the typing thingies never go above 50 wpm.

 

Well, I learned to type fast through the internet only, as my school almost never use computers (only for stuff like Word, Excel, Geogebra etc.). I use all fingers and I never look at my keyboard, I just know exactly where the letters are.

I took a typing test for fun once on a website (http://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english), and this was my result:

I took it in Danish (even though I type exactly as fast in English), so the green numbers are the words I wrote correct, and the red numbers are the words I wrote wrong. At the bottom it says that I'm "better than 98.27% of all users (position 10 of 577 - the last 24 hours)". This is what 5 years of internet does to you, kids.

You should try taking the test yourself. ;3

 

I type with 2 fingers and I taught myself how to type fast.

A few days ago I told my friend I typed with 2 fingers and he told me that was impossibru at such a speed like that :3

 

I learned myself. I can type very fast indeed, I have been using a computer/laptop since I was a kid. Learning how to type etc. took me a while.

 

Tip of advice.
Learn the keyboard.
Be the keyboard.
kbai.

 

Uhh... Video games and People.

I took typing classes, and you can type faster by doing it A LOT.

 

well, i learned fast typing on the net, now i can type 400 words a minute when i feel like doing it

 

Meh... school... practice
I can type without looking, every once in a short while I take a peep at the keyboard... I type with 8 fingers (Not the right way; pinky, ring, middle, index) on both hands I only took a typing test not too long ago... My average was 56 WPM

 

I just developed overtime to type fast. Those school games that "help" you, did not help me at all, I just remembered where most keys are at most times.

 

I kind of taught myself how to type by using just 6 fingers (index, ring, and middle).
A few days ago I've started to occasionally use my pinky finger for backspace and a few other keys.

 

It's all about using more fingers. I typically use 8 fingers and type fairly fast (i'll take a test later and upload score). But just forcing yourself to use more fingers and slowly getting used to it will work (or at least that's my analogy).

EDIT: 82 WPM (and turns out I actually only use 6 fingers :L)
