Measuring your current typing style…

If you’re interested, or due to be, attending StarTouch training soon, you might like us to assess your current typing style first.

(Note: Attended already & learnt how to Touch Type? You can measure, record & track your post-course practice exercises using this tool too)

Please read these guidelines SLOWLY & THOROUGHLY to get the very best results from StarTracker.

Read ALL 5 INSTRUCTIONS before you start!

(then you can scroll back to review them one-by-one as you have a go yourself).

1) Identify yourself

Always enter your full name.

Enter any other information StarTouch may have suggested you include

Press the “Continue” button

2) Start typing your 1st sentence

Type anything you like. Copy something if you must. But if at all possible, think up what to type yourself.

Keep it short and keep it simple (nothing hard to spell or needing particular thought!)

Press Enter when finished (it’s quicker & easier than clicking the ‘Stop’ button!)

3) Correct as you go

As you type… don’t rush. Aim for “right first time”… but if you do notice any mistakes, correct them as you go.

4) Type more short sentences

Type between 5 & 10 separate short phrases/sentences.

Press Enter after each short sentence.

Do NOT type several lines all in a single ‘paragraph’

5) Submit your results

After typing up to 10 or so short simple sentences…

…to submit your results to StarTouch for analysis & feedback, press the “Submit (+ save)” button.

This sends your results to us.
