Oh and just fyi, the keyboard is the same whether you are on a typewriter, word processor, computer or other device.
Also Google Frank Gilbreth to learn more about the man that came up with speed typing.
If you live in an apartment, his wife probably designed your kitchen layout in the 1920's.

We had old manual typewriters when I took typing in high school. Although I never did better than about 32 WPM, I thought the class was still useful in teaching me how to type. But maybe you already knew how to type before class, and were looking just to speed up?
