Each drill is 30 short words made only from the keys in this lesson, generated fresh each time so you never memorise the text. Repeat it until you reach 95% accuracy, then move on to the next lesson.

Frequently asked questions

How long should I practise each lesson?

Five to ten minutes a day is enough. Move on when you can type the lesson at 95% accuracy without looking at the keyboard.

How is WPM calculated?

Words per minute counts every 5 correctly typed characters, including spaces, as one word, divided by the minutes elapsed. Raw WPM counts every keystroke, right or wrong. Accuracy is the share of keystrokes that were correct, so mistakes still count even if you fix them.

Is WPMTrack free and private?

Yes. Every test, lesson and certificate is free with no account. Your results and history are stored only in this browser and are never uploaded.

What does consistency mean?

Consistency measures how steady your speed was from second to second. 100% means you typed at exactly the same pace the whole time; lower numbers mean bursts and pauses.
