Well... I did not need this Tech lesson to face the fact that I will never excel in a career that requires a better than average WPM score. Maybe it is because I never played the free games and typing lessons online ??
Tonight, I chose to play a game called "Bubbles" it was beginner level and you typed in one letter as it floated to the top... Simple enough.. Now I'm ready for something a little more advanced... I chose to play a Pacman knockoff game. It was more fun than I expected for a typing game but challenged my speed.The great thing about the previously mentioned games it that it allows you to chose the focus of keys whether that be numbers, lower case letters, upper case, or a combination.
I took a typing lesson on the site www.typingstudy.com to practice the home row keys (since I never exactly use a home "base", this wasn't a bad idea). I thought this was really helpful because the screen highlighted the finger that was to do the work. Perfect lesson for a beginner. Now, I am ready for the ultimate typing test. I did better than expected and I do believe it was testing words rather than random letters. 35 correct words out of 39. I will stop while I am ahead.
