Recommended Usage
For students who can already type, they should familiarise themselves with the revision notes provided to prepare themselves for the Theory Assessment, and take multiple Practice Tests until they achieve the required word per minute for the level they are being assessed for.
For students who are learning to type, we recommend 15-20 minutes of daily practice. Once they have learned the a-z and punctuation keys, they should then practice on the 'Challenge' and 'SpeedBuilder' modules to develop speed and accuracy. They should also familiarise themselves with the revision notes for the Theory Assessment.
