Looking For Typing App

[Mike Soda]

Since I've decided to apply for some Transcriber jobs I'd like to improve upon my typing skills for potentially more income. Currently I can type about 50WPM not utilizing all my fingers & in the wrong positions too . Simply Googling "free typing program" brings way too many results, I just want something simple & most importantly malware free, any suggestions?

Typeracer is the best. But only to practice typing, no tutorial on how to position fingers etc.,..

I do about 80-100 Word per second, no formation, and fingers with the ASDW gaming style

Thank you, maybe I'll just try watching YouTube videos on the correct finger positions if no one else replies. When I last tested mine was on a friend's laptop about a week ago using www.typingtest.com/. Although I'm hesitant to trust that site on my own PC because that friend of mine tends to just use anything lol.

practice typeracer. who cares aboutr fingers position. if you're fast, its fine. and also, typeracer, you need to not make mistake or you have to erase and type correctly, otherwise you won't advance. So that practice accuracy and speed.

True, I was just assuming I'd be more accurate & faster if I learned the proper positioning. Which Transcriber work is dependent on from what I've heard & I'd like that $20.00 per hour worth of audio one company offers.
