Introduction

Welcome to Module 4! In this module you will learn about our typing program, Typing.com. Typing.com is a great tool for us to use because it will walk you through lessons that fit your skill level–beginner, intermediate, or advanced.

The way this will work is you will start out taking a 1-minute typing test from typing.com. I will review your results and then place you in the level that fits your current skill set. Please wait for further instructions before starting the typing lessons because I do not want you to waste your time. You will receive an email from me with what skill level lessons you will complete.

It is okay if you are placed in the beginner level and not the advanced level because this whole program is about growing your knowledge and improving your abilities!
