How good (or bad) a typist are you?

Yes, I am a speed typist, I went to school to learn, many (many) years ago. I do not look at my fingers, I look at the screen so I see what I am typing.

Dear @TheHorse, I am not a formally trained typist though I owned a type writer three decades back.That was a Remington Rand a manual one. I tried to complete the lessons on that machine many a times but I couldn't succeed. So today I type in my own style and I am happy with the results! Thanks!

I'm one of those best at typing. In fact when I was in 6th grade, in typing class, I was exempted since I could do it perfectly well with a typewriter. I could even type better than the teacher that she told me not to practice anymore and just help her with the other students. It was my grandfather who taught us how to type properly with the correct fingers and without looking at the keyboard. He let us used his old typewriter. I think the brand was Olympia. He would cover all the letters with a masking tape so we wouldn't be able to see them and just focus on what we were typing. It's something I could never ever forget at all. He told us, smart people should type the correct way.

I zip along at 75-80 WPM. But that's my job, so I get lots of practice. Typos? Ii nevre maek typeoss!! Wahht aer yuo taklign abuost??????????

I look at the keyboard although all the letters are gone. I taught myself to type and I can be fast. I think most people make mistakes. I make more on the laptop than on the office computer.

@TheHorse The Horse, are you looking for a typist? I am not bad at typing. I used to type faster in English and in Hebrew I am very slow.

Pony..I eat words. I eat letters. I am a glutton. There is complete lack of co-ordination between my thinking and my typing. Thoughts race, and typing is slow. Lot of grammar mistakes creep in too. Most of the time I re-read and correct. But at times, even when I re-read, I miss out. Then you have some really ridiculous stuff there to make sense from.

I am fairly good at typing but I used to be faster and better. Now I notice more errors as I go along

I'm actually pretty good. Both on the computer keyboard and on a touch screen. People are always impressed with how fast I am on a keyboard. Especially without looking lol.

Well, I can type fast but I assure you, I will have mistakes. I am better when I use the desktop.

Not me. I'm the one finger wonder when it comes to typing and texting. I would never make a good transcriber.

I can type very fast if that 's your question.

Well I am an average typist I'm not that fast if I try to be fast I make mistakes

When I am on my Computer very seldom do I make many errors, and can type pretty quick. When you see errors from me on here, that means I was on my tablet which I enjoy but can be a pain and easier to make mistakes

It really depending on whether am i typing from my mind or I actually have some scripts that i would need to follow.

I've never been a good typist.

I'm a touch typist, and many years ago used to teach typing. These days, however, my speed is not great.

I wish I knew how to type. I failed typing class in school. And I still texts with my thumb That's all bad for me

i also have to watch my fingers on the keyboard so that i type faster and make less mistakes..
