I remember when I was in high school, there was computer class, and I did learn typing in one semester. I still remember the program was called Typing Tutor. I didn't have computer at home and hence I actually didn't practice much.
I really improved my typing skill when I was in college. I had my first computer and I was busy chatting with others using either mIRC, ICQ or later messengers, and that's how I became better at typing.
I just found a free typing program called Typing Club. I took a look at the intro, it looks good. Perhaps I will follow the lessons and learn how to type, and most importantly, I think it's good for my eldest son to learn. He doesn't use computer much and he is using one finger to type now. I think he will enjoy taking the typing lessons.
If you are interested, you can take some typing lessons here too:
Learn touch typing online using TypingClub's free typing courses. It includes 650 typing games, typing tests and videos.

we were enrolled by our parents in typing class one summer and it was on the big heavy metal typewriters.

Yes, long time ago I went to the typing class to learn it although at that time I was a student only. Later there is an internet and computer, at that time the chatting software was popular. And therefore I learned how to type fast because of chatting.

Thank you to Yahoo Messenger I learned how to type. When I got a job, I learned to type faster than my usual.

I didn't really use the home computer for much of anything except printing pictures and things from a disney art collection. Then when my mom got the internet, I was self taught for typing without looking at the keys. I know I don't type "correctly" since I don't use all the correct fingers but I can type with ease!

I can type fast. I have passed several typing tests before I joined this office.

I'll never be up to secretary standard in my typing. Ive taken classes but I can't get the gist of it. I don't have very good finger/hand/eye coordination for typing. I get what I need to do done, but I am the one finger wonder in doing it.
