Improving typing speed and keyboard navigation
As the title says, I am super concerned with my typing speed right now (46 wpm) and am 100% convinced that it will be big disadvantage for me in productivity. I have to glance at the keyboard while typing, and only use index and middle fingers to type.
Anyone knows how I can improve this? Any tips and advice would be awesome.
Thanks!
Hey over_seeen, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I'm here since nobody responded to your topic! Bummer...could just be unlucky but one of these topics will help shed some light:

You're welcome.
I learned how to type back when I was about 12 with a broken dominant hand. My typing style is drastically different because of that. But I remember what actually gave me the skills to type...AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). The faster the response, the more the chat felt like a conversation; which was really important to me when I was about 12 years old.
Innovation is driven by necessity. While my example may be sophomoric, it demonstrates that point well. Find something that requires a keyboard to do, and something you enjoy or has time pressure involved, but also does not have bad repercussions with typing mistakes.
Bottom line, you will get better with more practice and have many avenues to do so!
Awesome advice. Will work on it right away. Thanks a lot!
I’ve found typeracer to be a fun way to practice. Typemonkey is also fun and very smooth.
Lmao just tried them out. Pretty fun. Thanks Reuss!

I did the lessons from beginner to advanced. Improved my typing speed, accuracy. Before it I was typing with my index fingers and looking at the keyboard. Took me two months to get to 50 wpm and >90% accuracy.
