Typing Skills are no longer just for secretaries.
We are now all using these skills to type letters, send emails, surf the internet
and other computer applications.
Are you one of those people who are only using two fingers, and
frustrated that it is taking you over an hour to type that two page
document? If you want to increase productivity, and be able to
type asdfghjkl; with the correct fingers, help is on the way!
There are a number of typing tutorials on the market, these, however require a
lot of perseverance and time to enable you to achieve skills in touch typing.
From experience, in Typing Skills classes I have taught, I recommend the BBC Dance Mat Typing Tutor.
This is free and available on the internet at www.bbc.co.uk/schools/typing
It is aimed at 7-11 year old children. Do not let this put you off, as this has been
very successful, with adults who have attended Typing Skills courses with me, and tried other
tutorials unsuccessfully, within one day they have learnt these skills!
Happy Typing!
Best wishes
