hi twatau,

Just sharing my experience being someone who went from 'single-digiter' to '10-finger typist'. Classes are ok, but practice is what really counts. I had joined a school and what I got from there is to place your left hand fingers on 'asdf', right hand on \";lkj\". Anything else stretch from the nearest finger - up down, left right. (Hope I'm making sense. :P)

I see some typing course software available from the library. Not sure if you want to try that out.

Thanks. Actually that was how I self taught myself as well, looking at how the typist (there was still this profession when I started working) do their typing and try to monkey see monkey do. Yeah, there do have software out there that help you to practice the correct way of typing.

my ds can type pretty fast with both hands.. I think faster then me... he got this practise by playing mable story haaa... but his fingering is not the proper one...his fingers 'fly' all over the key board but it seems like it is his 'way' of typing..

That's why we let them play games on the computer, right Homework is also plan in between games session for my kids at home!
