Hello everybody;
I agree when the emails said that to read is more easy to write. I read its very fast and I understand but when I like to write or answer it takes me more long time.
I can notice that I write more fastest everyday but I have to improve.

Regards,
Edgar

Hello every body, I can not write fast using a keyboard as many of your, in secondary school I remember that only women taked this courses, today in this computerized world is importan develop this kind of skills. I agree, as fast you can write you will be more efficient in your professional life. I remember read about some methods to impove this skills based on memorize the keyboard and learn to pick some key wich each finger, use all fingers is the goal without mistakes picking keys with wrong one. Some person close their eyes while they are writing on keybord. Other important subject to write faster, of course, is to know how the word must be writed and grammar to be used, as better you know the language is better.

Hi everybody,
I don't think I can type English very fast and exactly. It's so bad. :(
So can anyone give me some great suggestions? Thank you! :)

By the way, I have something confused and need your helps.
I know sometime somewhere we can use apostrophe (') in "I'm, You're, We don't, etc.", but any others? Please let me know.

On the other hand, there are so many Latin Abbreviations frequently used in English, how many about it do you know, and could you share them with me? Do you think they can be used only in written English or both written and spoken?

Let me know if you have something treasure to share with me.
Thank you for all your helps.

Regards,
Candy Chen

Hello Laura,

I just read your story and am so impressed. I admire you very much. Although I haven't seen you before, I already have a very positive feeling toward you. I wish I could be a friend of you. I'm living with my husband in Minneapolis, Mn and so desperately need to learn English. If I can be in touch with you, I will be so pleased.

Sincerely,

Just A Friend

hi andrea,
Typing always attracted me from my childhood. There are so many typing institute in my surroundings that are well equipped with all necessary tools to help students to learn typing. I started my typing from one of such institute.

with time, i got competency in typing and now my speed is 50 wpm. i participated in many typing tests and performed well. this skill always gives me deep internal satisfaction and such a pleasure that a musician gains when he performed with any of his musical instrument.

it is good to write to share something about typing in my opinion this skill develops with practice and it belongs to our mind rather than our speedy moving of fingers on key board so when we practise the key board in manner that we make ourselves able to recall the correct places of alphabets then it is guarantee of correct and speedy typing.

in my view, everyone can learn this skill by himself but one must consult for experience of others.

with regards
