Mastering the Course
Phase 1: Home Row Mastery
Start with Lesson 1 and focus exclusively on accuracy. Don't worry about WPM yet. Your goal is to build the muscle memory of where your fingers rest.
Phase 2: Color Progression
- If your lesson dot is 🔴, stay on that row and practice slowly.
- Once it turns 🟡, you can move to the next row but should revisit this one occasionally.
- When it turns 🟢, you have mastered those keys and are ready for the next level.
Our interactive keyboard provides real-time guidance:
- Key Highlighting: The next key you need to press glows in its assigned finger color.
- Finger Guidance: The hand visualization highlights the exact finger you should use.
- Shift Assistant: For capital letters or symbols, the system highlights the opposite Shift key and pinky finger automatically.
Simply stay signed in with your Google Account. As you finish each exercise, your highest accuracy for that row is instantly uploaded and saved. You can see your best scores reflected in the colored dots at the bottom of the Course screen.

If using Google Login:
- Ensure you're signed in (check top-right corner)
- Check your internet connection
- Try signing out and back in
- Clear browser cache and reload
Check:

Yes, the site works on mobile, but we recommend using a physical keyboard on desktop/laptop for proper typing practice.

Advanced Analytics
The typing heatmap shows a visual representation of your key accuracy:
- Green keys - High accuracy, well-practiced
- Yellow keys - Medium accuracy, needs practice
- Red keys - Low accuracy, focus on these keys
Use the heatmap to identify weak spots and target your practice effectively. Available in Dashboard → Advanced Mode → Results.
Consistency: Measures how stable your typing speed is throughout the test. Higher consistency (closer to 100%) means you maintain a steady rhythm without speed fluctuations.
Latency: Average time delay between keystrokes. Lower latency indicates faster reaction times and smoother typing flow.
Both metrics help professional typists and data entry specialists optimize their performance.
After completing a test in Advanced Mode (Dashboard), scroll down to see detailed statistics:
- Most Missed Keys - Keys you frequently make mistakes on
- Error Patterns - Common typing mistakes (substitutions, omissions)
- WPM Graph - Line chart showing speed variations over time
- Character Accuracy - Per-character breakdown
