I’ve recently started trying to improve my typing speed, which has probably been held back by my somewhat unconventional typing style. Formal touch typing was never a part of my education, and while years of computer use eventually led to me being able to type without looking, I’m probably not as efficient as I could be.

Can you touch type - and with proper form? QWERTY, DVORAK or other layout?

    Yes, no, QWERTY; I use the F and J nubs to center my hands but I dont’t keep them in the “correct position” as was taught in my elementary typing class. Regular computer use lends itself to getting good at typing quickly. I only have to look for some special characters that I don’t often use.
