How each lesson works

Every lesson goes from single keys to words, sentences and a short exam, and only uses keys you have already learned. The on-screen keyboard lights up the next key, animated hands show which finger presses it, and you earn up to three stars per exercise for accuracy.

How is keypad speed measured?

In keystrokes per hour (KPH). Data-entry job ads often ask for roughly 8,000 to 10,000 KPH, and the course drills build toward that.
