If you dream of learning how to type quickly, you should always know where to start learning. All people who type on a computer keyboard fall into two categories: those who type with two or three fingers, and those who use all ten fingers in their work.
You can competently and fully work with the keyboard with only ten fingers, and everyone can learn this. It is impossible to type quickly with two or three fingers - this type of dialing is not only slower, but also often leads to various diseases of the joints. Therefore, the first step to the ability to type quickly is always mastering the ten-finger printing method (also called the "blind method"). To do this, it is enough to purchase or download any keyboard simulator, but remember that you will need a lot of patience and perseverance. After you have mastered this first step, it is necessary to consolidate all the acquired skills. To do this, it is necessary to type at least two pages of text every day - sometimes it is enough just to quite actively communicate in chat, on forums or in ICQ. It is necessary to achieve a feeling of ease when typing - that is, to feel that your hands are automatically making all the necessary movements. If you have successfully passed the stage of consolidation of skills, you can proceed to the stage of gaining speed. To do this, you need to start typing small, simple texts for a while - and the texts get more complicated each time. In most cases, a person's typing speed drops when he has to type long words, numbers, as well as punctuation marks or symbols. Therefore, in order to learn how to type quickly, you should first work out the procedure for typing symbols and numbers, and then enter them into the texts that you are typing for a while. It is accepted to measure the printing speed in characters per minute. If you are typing 150-200 characters per minute - this is a normal speed, 250-300 characters per minute is a high typing speed, and if you can type more than three hundred characters per minute - this means that you already know how to type very quickly. There is always something to strive for - for example, one of the recent world records was 780 characters per minute.
