The way I learned to type is by dividing my laptop screen into a left side, where I read, like the news, or Kindle, or some website I like, and a smaller right side that I don’t look at, where I type into Word, or simply Notepad. I went from zero to 60 words a minute fairly quickly. I’m so used to it now that I like to type the books I read. It helps me also because I’m a diagonal reader. Typing what I read forces me to slow down and assimilate more of what I’m reading.
