Portable TypeFaster Standard

Touch-typing is a skill that is desired by most employees since it means that you are most likely going to write quite fast. Portable TypeFaster Standard is a nice program that was designed to help you gain this skill.

Basically, the method involves typing with 8 fingers and a thumb. Touch-typists don’t even have to look at the keyboard to find the keys they want to type, which is particularly useful.

The app has a simple interface that should be easy to figure out by all users.

As mentioned, the program wants to teach you how to increase the typing speed and it does this through several tests that it can run. Once a lesson is completed, the app provides an overall assessment of your progress. Thus, you may view the accuracy level (with and without using backspace), the number of keystrokes per minute and the words per minute for this lesson.

The app also includes a game that lets you shoot missiles from a fighting space ship towards words that you need to type in. More words can be added from the Settings area.

There are several additional settings that help you adjust the program to your needs. For instance, you may change the keyboard layout to some country-specific ones, as well as the lessons layout.

Since the app is completely portable, it doesn’t need to be installed to the computer and can be launched from all types of removable devices, such as flash drives.

Portable TypeFaster Standard is a nice tool that is sure to come in handy to those who are only now learning how to use a computer. Inexperienced users should find it easy to handle, thanks to the intuitive layout and its overall simplicity.
