Speed Building Techniques

Lesson 3: Speed Building

Now that you know the keys, let us focus on building speed. The goal for government exams is 30-40 WPM with 95%+ accuracy.

Techniques to Increase Speed

1. Daily Practice: Practice 20-30 minutes every day consistently.
2. Use All 10 Fingers: Never type with just 2 fingers — use all fingers as assigned.
3. Read Ahead: While typing one word, your eyes should be reading the next word.
4. Rhythm: Type in a steady rhythm, like drumming. Consistency beats bursting.
5. Accuracy First: Do not sacrifice accuracy for speed. Errors slow you down more than slow typing.
