:: Welcome.

Welcome to TypeSpeed. Here, you can instruct yourself, or a group of people how to type.

TypeSpeed is the fastest way to reach your full typing potential. You can use the 'exercises' to learn how to type, or review the most efficient typing techniques available. If you ever want to know what your typing speed is, you can take the typing test, which will tell you how well you type.

If you teach a typing course/class, you can use TypeSpeed as a teaching aid to help your students learn how to type faster. As they advance through the exercises, you'll be relieved to know that when you want to test them, you can choose the difficulty of the texts they have to type.

There are currently over 39 texts available for typing tests.
There's even an awesome tool called Portable WPM that allows you to take your highest Words Per Minute Typing Score on TypeSpeed and show it off on your favorite forums or your website!

So.... What are you waiting for? Sign Up for Free

If you'd like to try out TypeSpeed without registering, you can go to Take the Test. Just remember that if you enjoy it, you can register for free to access over 39 texts and your score will be kept, which is used for your Portable WPM.

You should also check out the exercises (lessons). They teach you from the ground up how to type like a pro. You can use them whether or not you have an account, but your results are recorded only if you are logged in.
