Frequently Asked Questions

Information About Learning to Type

​How often should I practice typing?

Daily practice is ideal-even just 10-15 minutes per day can lead to noticeable improvements over time.If daily practice isn't possible, aim for at least 3-4 sessions per week to maintain progress.

​How long should I practice typing each day?

To improve typing speed and accuracy, it's best to practice typing 10-15 minutes daily if you're a beginner. As you get more comfortable with the keyboard, increase your typing practice time to 20-30 minutes per session for faster progress.

For advanced typists, keyboard training for 30-60 minutes per day-split into shorter sessions-can help refine skills and reach higher WPM (words per minute) goals.

​How can I improve my typing speed?

You've come to the right place. The best way to improve your typing skills is consistent typing practice with structured exercises, like the All The Right Type program provides.

Best Practices for Typing Improvement:

• Focus on accuracy first before increasing typing speed.
• Use typing games and online typing tests to track progress.
• Practice with touch typing techniques to improve efficiency.
• Maintain proper keyboard posture to reduce fatigue.

​How long does each All The Right Type lesson module take to complete?

For an average typist with a speed of around 40 WPM, each module should take approximately two minutes to complete. As you advance through the structured typing tutor program, you'll gradually improve your skills and learn to master more keys on the keyboard.

​How fast should I be able to type?

An acceptable words per minute (WPM) speed depends on the context in which you're typing. Here's a general guideline:

Typing Speed Benchmarks:

• Beginner: 20-30 WPM
• Average Typist: 40-50 WPM (sufficient for everyday tasks)
• Proficient Typist: 60-80 WPM (good for office work, data entry, or writing)
• Advanced/Professional Typist: 80-100+ WPM (ideal for transcription, coding, or competitive typing)

For most jobs, a WPM of 50-60 is considered acceptable, while higher speeds (70+ WPM) are beneficial for roles that require extensive typing.

​Do you provide a version that can be downloaded and used without internet access?

All The Right Type is now exclusively online, and we remain committed to providing an ad-free experience-ensuring a focused and distraction-free learning environment.

To use our program, an internet connection is required, and it's accessible on any device with internet access. While we do offer a limited download option for iPads, it doesn't include all the features of the full program.

If you have any specific concerns about using an online platform, we'd love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. To help you decide if our program is the right fit for you or your family, we offer a 5-day free trial for Single-User and Homeschool versions.

Account and Registration

​Does each user need their own login?

Yes, every user will need their own unique login credentials for All The Right Type. This allows each account to have personalized goal settings tailored to the user's age and ability. Additionally, it enables the platform to track individual progress and maintain personalized records for every user.

​Google SSO login issue: I signed up using my Google account and now I can't login.

Please verify that you're using the correct Google email associated with your account. If you still can't access it, since your Google password isn't linked to an All The Right Type account, we'll need to provide you with a dedicated All The Right Type password.
Send an email to [email protected].

​Logged out: Why was I logged out of my account?

Our program allows only one active session per user, meaning only one person can access an account at a time. If a new login occurs, the previous session will automatically end. A portion of the program is temporarily cached, allowing you to continue using it until you save or access the database again, even if you've been disconnected. However, when you attempt to save or access the database after being disconnected, the program will indicate that you are not connected, and your results will not be saved. For this reason, we do not recommend sharing accounts. Each user should have their own individual account to track their progress.

For added security, accounts are logged out after 30 minutes of inactivity.

​Password: I can't remember my password, how do I get access to my account?

To reset your password, go to the login page and click on "Forgot my password." Follow the steps to reset your password and regain access to your account.

We never delete the typing progress records of active users in All The Right Type.

Each content selection offers different topics and material for you to type, as well as records for each selection. Once you change it back to your previous setting, you should be able to view your results for that particular Curriculum Content.

Sometimes if the screen is not in full view it can alter where to click for the "Start" or "Next" button to progress to the next segment. Ensure that you're using the program in full view and that the zoom setting is at 100%. Please refresh the page after making the adjustment to 100% and the click box should adjust to the correct place.
