So you’ve got the chops for typing. Your friends compliment you a lot for how fast you type. When you have a laptop or desktop computer in hand, it’s basically your time to shine. Some compare you to Mozart when you type as your fingers dance over the keys.
Do you know how many words you can type per minute? How about your maintained speed in 50 minutes? How many fingers do you use to type? Do you know all the keys in the keyboard from memory?
The answer to all these questions can all be found in a typing program! Typing programs aren’t just for beginners or people learning a brand-new technique. They can be for anyone, even professionals like you think you are. Some programs are, indeed, meant for children, while others have packages for schools and universities. However, most of them can be used at home to practice your skills and test yourself to make sure you aren’t missing out ona an important element of excellent typing.
Typing programs can help you improve a few key elements of your practice, like those described below.
Speed, the number one thing that people who type well gloat about. Keyboarding speed is measured in words per minute, but professionals also measure how many words they can type in 50 minutes. The average typing speed is usually 40 wpm, but the Guinness Book of World Records recorded Barbara Blackburn as the fastest typist in the world with 212 wpm with maintained speed of 150 wpm in 50 minutes. You may be able to beat that record if you use typing programs that test you constantly, and push you to beat your own records. Someone needs to win back that World Record title!
Speed may be impressive, but anyone can type gibberish quickly. Professionally, words containing errors aren’t counted towards your score. Thus, it is important to type fast and be accurate at the same time. Blackburn and her competitor Wrona scored more than 200 correct words each. Websites online are creative in identifying errors in typing. Some usually coat it with red. Others won’t register it unless it’s the correct letter. Some won’t register the word at all once an error has been committed.
There are many free typing websites, but, if you really want to be the best in your field, you can buy the packages installed in certain websites. Some websites are purely for free use, like SpeedTypingOnline and Ratatype, but they only provide one test or limited number of courses. What most websites do is make their tests and courses free, but reserve some features for sale only. These features are usually the most effective way to learn as they offer difficult courses or additional, more entertaining features like games. They also provide instructional videos or audio guides to help you learn keyboarding.
Now, it’s time to put your skills to the test, so that the next time your friends compliment your skill, it won’t be a bunch of gibberish.

Choosing the right age-appropriate typing curriculum for your students can be tough. There are several things to consider, and in many cases, you will be deciding on a program for many children simultaneously. Programs like Typesy can be great for groups and individuals because they meet all the requirements for any age group. But what is it you are looking for, exactly?
When choosing a curriculum you need to keep the children’s age in mind. Are you trying to teach a group of eight-year-olds or middle schoolers? These two age groups need entirely different things from a typing curriculum. The eight-year-olds will need simpler tasks that are made more fun. The activities need to be broken up into smaller bites.
Meanwhile, middle schoolers can spend longer stretches at their computers, and they need a more repetitive and advanced curriculum compared to their younger counterparts. Choose the program that caters to the age group you are working with. You can also choose a program that caters to any age group, like Typesy for example.
Ads can often be an issue on many free typing websites. You may find an awesome site with no fees and fun games, but the next thing you know the kids are seeing inappropriate video ads and clickbait. This can bring viruses to computers, and even to the whole network, the computers are running on.
Ads can expose children to things they should not see. It is always best to choose a curriculum that is ad-free and safe for the children.
Some children learn best with repetitive drills. Others learn best with games and entertainment. There are some programs that use one method or the other, but it is best to find one that includes both. Get to know the children you will be teaching and decide what works best for them. No two children are alike, so if you are teaching in groups you will need a program that can handle multiple methods.
The last thing to remember is to decide what you want the focus of the curriculum to be, and stick to it. Do you want to teach the students key placement and proper posture and hand placement? Are your students more advanced, and now focused on speed and accuracy? These things matter. Some programs, like Typesy, can offer a wide range of options. Others tend to stick to one focus at a time.
Choosing the right age-appropriate typing curriculum for your students can be challenging. You want to ensure you are providing the best education that you can while ensuring every student gets what they need from the program. No two kids are alike, which is why programs like Typesy are the best option. The wider the scope of the program, the more students it will work for.
Focus on the child’s age and skill level, and you will be sure to find the right curriculum for your students.
