...typing my words.
I was checking my typing speed and need to improve it. It is one of the requirements of having a non-voiced teaching job online. I always got an average score of 45 wpm (words per minute). It is a passing score but I wanted to hit at least 50 wpm.
Do you like to enhance your existing soft skills?
How fast can you type words per minute?

typing isn't a soft skill
I can hit 100 wpm when I am rolling. I can, however, using Dragon Dictate do around 150 wpm.
i work on public speaking all the time.

@DocAndersen It is nice to enhance the existing skills. I felt bad for those people who are afraid of changes in their lives.

It is my cup of tea the public speaking part. Typing is not what I wanted to enhance. However, some companies need to be skilled in this, especially in teaching online. Some online students are not good at listening. So the virtual teachers need to type while talking with them.

Do you like to enhance your existing soft skills? Yes, always.
How fast can you type words per minute? Not sure but it is above-average.

On a regular keyboard I can easily do 100 wpm, I have actually tested for a bit higher.
That is the reason why I sought out office work, I set records back in high school in typing class, when we used manual typewriters and I always won the class award for the years that I took the class.

Of course you can talk faster than you can type.
When I was in High School I could type around 45 wpm. I'm faster now, but I have no idea how fast I can type. (Pretty makes fun of me. She types 180 wpm. So, if she's around, I make her do the typing.

@Shavkat Pretty has long fingernails and she uses them to type with. When she's typing in her room, it sounds like hail on a tin roof. It's really funny!
Oh, yeah, I was wondering if you checked out the reviews for the company.

That's a nice GIF you have up there. I had great typing speed but not so these days I make mistakes.

I can't remember how fast but looking back, I passed the typing test when I applied for a job.
You can improve it for sure.

No, I don't have skills like that, don't need to since I don't type.
