Want to Get to 90WPM

By aceisthatguy - updated: 5 years, 4 months ago - 3 messages

Hey guys.
I have been touch typing for just under a year now. Steadily improving. I have an average of about 78WPM. I really wanna get to the 80's and my ultimate goal is 90+. However it's to tough though. I just can't get there.

What are some tips for me to reach these illustrious speeds ? Holla back

I think we got the same problem 'cause your boi is out here practicing all day for about 5 months now and I have definitely improved from my average 20 - 30 wpm typing to about an average of 65 WPM. It is quite difficult really to accumulate a lot of speed so I just think that if we just keep on practicing or maybe focus on different parts of the keyboard at different times, we might improve.
Hope this helps brother.

Focus on accuracy first. 94% is pretty low for an average. You may have to slow down at first to work on it, but as you improve your accuracy the speed will follow. Try to go for 100% even if it slows you down a lot at first. The payoff is great.

Get the muscle memory for really common-ish letter combinations. A basic example is 'wer' (power) on the QWERTY layout. You might find some more by just typing more.
