I agree with you.I get more confused and I type very slow when I used the Master's Technique.Maybe that is because I am not used to its finger method.I type faster when I don't follow their rule

I have one friend, he can type 50 wpm.I am amazed.He chats a lot, of course, no doubt on that but he types everything so correctly, no mistakes.He never uses any short forms or words like "wot" instead of "what", I guess this is the reason why he is so good in typing and makes no spelling errors.

I agree with you. I've only taken one typing class in my life and that was my 9th grade year which was a while ago. I type probably 20wpm faster than when i took that class.

Typing class,I find it more difficult.Now,since I am used to typing my way, and not like what it is taught in Master's Technique.If I follow that technique,I know I will never catch up speed.

Yes, accuracy also matters and not just typing skill.Speed without accuracy has no value.Good point my friend.
