i have big fingers and my wife bought a small keyboard now i am having a hard time typing words for sometimes i press two letters at the same time. but mylot is a good place where we can practise english. well practising english is not for people who english is not the native language but for people who english is the native language.
so for you does mylot helps you improve your english and your speed on typing. i admit mylot does helps. a lot.

yes there are a lot of benifits that mylot can offer and the coolest is we can earn while giving our piece of mind and our views. you can also gain friends from different parts of the world. that is so cool. we are like one family

Practising english is not for people whose english is not the native language but for people whose native language is english?
Anyway, yeah, this site has certainly helped me on raising my typing speed as well as hone my communications skills with the english language.
I really like being active in this site very much, especially when I end up visiting someone's profile and seeing their discussions that interests me, it gets me all active again.

har har har, i can say we are at the same boat when you say that you are not using the proper finger for the proper letter. i even use just one finger when typing har har har but that is just when i am holding my drink. which is not that often.

I teach English grammar and writing. I suggest if you want to improve your English language skills (Good for you) use micosoft word and always run a grammar and spelling check. Secondly read good american or english books--like pride and prejudice-and you will absorb the flavor of the language!!

just like typing your english will enhance here dont worry for that. just make sure you read a lot of discussion here and look for the meaning of words on a dictionary if you are not familiar with it. there are a lot of words that i dont understand but i know most of that are just american expressions. such as LMAO... i dont know what is that har har har

Yes, I really have improved my English and it is the main reason why I'm here. I have no possibility to practice my English with my friends coz they know it badly so it's a good chance for me. I also noticed that my speed on typing has improved too.

Well, I have noticed that in the past few months that I have joined myLot and started posting and replying from post, my typing speed has increased. It has also helped me to formulate better English. MyLot does bring beneficial effects on both aspects. This aside from earning money online.

This is true MYLOT helps me to concentrate back on my English. Well my typing has always been there because this is my area of studies. I pass it in my C.X.C. & S.S.C. exams. But I have loss concentration on my english because of my sickness that I receive during my college days. So I am so glad that I am able to participate in a setting like this site.
