MaxType Lite: Free Typing Tutor

Maxtype Lite is a totally free program for teaching yourself how to touch type.
In my personal experience, it’s just as easy to learn how to type the right way as it is to learn the wrong way (a.k.a the two finger, search and stab method!)

All it really takes is a little self discipline and pretty soon it becomes a habit. After that, you’ll just get better and faster.

This program allows you to test yourself and gives you your W.P.M (words per minute)CPS and CPM(yeah i didn’t know what they stood for either! Characters per minute and per second). As well as the typing speed for each hand, altogether 20 (!) statistics on your typing. Also you can load any text file at all that you wish to practice with, so you won’t get bored!

You can grab it for free here and use those other 8 fingers! (Well 6 fingers and 2 thumbs).
