Melanie is a goldfish.
I am taking a Keyboarding class. Using my self-taught technique I type almost 60 wpm (nothing to brag about, but it’s fast enough for me). This class has set me all the way back to about 20-30wpm. This wouldn’t be a problem under normal circumstances, but there are a few reasons I’ve gotten discouraged:
-I’m WAY behind the rest of the class
-I’m a perfectionist when it comes to typing. I will restart an entire lesson if I get over 3 errors, although technically we are allowed well over that.
-I immediately revert back to my way when I’m not in class
-I constantly hit the wrong keys!
-I type “correctly” too slow for my needs
I hope with more practice I will master they keyboard! This week I started learning the number keys. Personally, I’m overjoyed that we’re done with Shift and Tab practice; I’m not used to using those fingers!
