Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Learning to touch type is not the most exciting thing you will ever do. Touch typing is the sort of skill you try to convince yourself you don't need, while a voice at the back of your head keeps telling you otherwise. Just think: all that time you waste correcting typing errors, or searching the keyboard for the letter "j", could be saved up and used for something exciting, such as paragliding. You will be able to type while watching the screen, and people won't be able to laugh at your clumsy two-fingered technique.
Learning to touch type is not the most exciting thing you will ever do.

You will be able to type while watching the screen, and people won't be able to laugh at your clumsy two-fingered technique.
Actually, although it may not be able to compete with paragliding for adrenaline-pumping excitement, learning to touch type can actually be quite fun. Focus Essential's Teach Yourself Touch Typing is a charming little package that could have you touch typing within a week. It includes an interactive game that helps to reinforce your memory of finger positions. Simply press the keys as indicated in the on-screen diagram. Not exactly Quake, but it does the job. First, though, you learn the correct finger positions by working through the various training and speed-building modules. On completion of the course, you take a series of tests and print out your own certificate. --Daren King
