I took a typing class for a semester my sophomore year. Manual typewriters. I still remember the teacher telling us to fold the paper in half, before we put it in the trashcan, otherwise it would fill up after one class.
My senior year, I took another typing class with electric typewriters. I was so so. |

Took Typing I & II in summer school in 1963. Little Smith Corona portable got me thru high school and college. Learned how to think/rough draft on a typewriter making a final draft go much faster.
My dad learned shorthand in high school in 1935ish. Interesting skill he could still do in his 90's. Now kids don't even know what it was. |

still using the Schroeder method of typing
which I mastered long ago No need to hunt and peck after you get good at it. you just have to peck. Eyes down on the keyboard, with extra emphasis on the backspace key. Look up occasionally to proof-read. That's when the back-space key really comes into play |
