Guides
These guides go with the tests, lessons, and games on SumnuTyping. They explain why each screen works the way it does. Each guide covers one part of the site.
If you are about to practice, read the practice guide once, then use the tool. If you are new to touch typing, start at the learn hub and open the lesson that matches the row you are on. For the big picture, read how to improve typing speed, what WPM means, and why typing speed matters.
Practice modesTimed, Words, and Code: what each one trains and when the test actually ends.
Learn hubThe six-lesson path, a 15-minute day, and the mistakes that stall a row.
Typing gamesHow Word Fall, Survival, and Type Racer train different habits.
Improve your speedA practice plan that keeps accuracy ahead of a peak WPM.
What is WPMThe five-character word, and the formula this site actually uses.
Why typing mattersWhere speed helps, and where a number on a website does not.
