A Program that can help practice typing?

I used to have mavis beakin (misspelled I know), although I don't know if they make it for mac

 

I wanted to learn hot to type DVORAK so I searched endlessly for a free way to learn that but I finally found there are no free typing tutors on mac. But, I gave in and payed for Master Key. Its $20 but so worth it. Very good typing tutor in my opinion. I can't say I learned DVORAK because I started but then lost interest, but I was learning very fast...

 

Actually, there are several free (and excellent) typing tutor applications available for Mac, of which TypeTrainer4Mac is probably the best. Check it out here:

If you want more, just search for "typing" on MacUpdate.

 

The thing that helped me learn to type more than anything else was instant messaging. I took a keyboarding class in high school, and had typed tons of papers, but it wasn't until I really started IMing people that I could touch type with any kind of speed. So, I vote you just spend endless hours IMing your mom from across the house.
