Don't Look - Try to make it through the Typing Tutorial without looking at the keys. Use quick strokes to strike and release the key rather than hard 'presses'; lightly press the key and move on to the next one in the tutorial.

Posture - Sit erect during the Typing Tutorial with your feet firmly planted on the floor. Improper posture not only makes you tired, but leads to errors and typing tutor results.

Your Eyes - Eyestrain can occur when fonts are too small, reflections appear in the monitor or your surroundings are too dark. The room where you're using the typing tutor should be well lit and text should be sized so that the Typing Tutorial is easy on the eyes. If you get headaches during the Typing Tutorial, you may need to have your vision checked. It's amazing what a good pair of glasses can do!

Your Fingers - Many poor results during the Typing Tutorial occur because the finger drifts away from their position. The program will show you where your fingers should be during the test so try to train yourself to remember those positions. After enough tutorials, this will become a habit.

The Chair - Many people who do poorly on the typing tutor notice that the bottom row of keys have a high error rate. This is because your chair is too close to the keyboard; instead, try moving the chair back, raise your wrists and revisit the Typing Tutorial.

Your Wrists - Make sure that your wrists are not resting against the keyboard or desk during the tutorial! Keep your fingers on the home row keys and your hands slanted upward at the same angle as the keyboard.

Relax - The single most important tutorial tip is to enjoy! Take your time, relax and enjoy the online tutor.
