Accuracy before pace
Correct movement is the pattern you want to repeat. Slow down when errors begin to cluster.

Typing Speed Guide
Typing faster is not only about moving your fingers more quickly. It comes from recognizing words sooner, using consistent movements, and keeping errors low enough to preserve rhythm.
These habits make faster typing repeatable instead of accidental.
Correct movement is the pattern you want to repeat. Slow down when errors begin to cluster.
Reach for the same key with the same finger so each word becomes a reusable movement pattern.
Aim for steady spacing between keys instead of sprinting through easy letters and freezing on hard ones.
Isolate words that break your rhythm and type them correctly before returning to timed practice.
Short, deliberate sessions are easier to repeat and review than long sessions without a clear focus.
Use familiar short words and keep your hands relaxed. The goal is clean movement, not a record.
Choose longer words, repeated letter pairs, or a difficulty level that exposes your current mistakes.
Play one 60-second run while protecting the accurate rhythm you established during practice.
Return to the words that caused hesitation, then type them again at a controlled pace.
Most plateaus come from inconsistent movement or attention, not a lack of effort.
Starting above your controlled pace creates corrections and broken rhythm. Begin cleanly, then let speed rise during the session.
Looking down interrupts word recognition. Practice familiar words while keeping your eyes on the target text.
A word that fails repeatedly needs isolated practice. Replaying at full speed only makes the wrong motion more familiar.
WPM alone does not show why a run felt difficult. Review accuracy and the words that interrupted your rhythm.
Progress
One unusually fast or slow result says less than a pattern across repeated sessions.
Use the same word level and a similar session length when checking whether your normal pace is improving.
Increase difficulty only when your current pace feels controlled. Small gains that remain accurate are easier to keep.
Continue with a focused guide or move straight into a practice set.
