Hello there, and welcome to Touch Typing Practice!

Who is this site for?

Touch Typing Practice is aimed at the intermediate to advanced touch typer. Someone who already knows which fingers should be pressing which keys and is now looking for a website that offers a more challenging, interesting, and tailored place to practice and test their touch typing skills.

Practice Touch Typing

On the left hand side, you'll find the practice area. Here, you'll be presented with 60 random words pulled from an English dictionary of over 65000 words. You can then fully customise the words with any punctuation you like, as well as customise the length of words that are pulled from the dictionary. This helps you tailor your practice to your exact needs.

The Real Extract Area

On the right hand side, you'll find the real extract area. Here, a random extract will be selected from millions available and presented to you for you to practice touch typing on. If you find the extract interesting, you can learn more about the extract's topic by using the Wikipedia link provided.

How it works

Once you begin typing, a timer begins. As you complete each word (and press the spacebar), your Correct Word Count, Incorrect Word Count, Words Per Minute, and Accuracy will all update in real time. This way you can see your typing stats without having to finish all the practice words and without having to type for a set period of time.

The website does not fit my screen very well (a possible issue on some screen sizes)

If you find the website does not display very well on your screen size, simply restore down the page (come out of full screen) and play with the width and height of the browser until the page displays correctly.

Hope you enjoy the site!
