If you had the chance to upgrade your vocabulary skills and your job skills at the same time, would you take it? Well, who wouldn’t want to improve their ability to compete and communicate in today’s employment market! Best of all, this method of vocabulary building won’t add any more time to your regular study program – thanks to modern technology, and the flexible features built into eReflect’s newest product, Ultimate Typing.

If you’re wondering how learning to touch type can help build vocabulary, keep reading, because there are more connections between the two than you might think. The first connection is the most basic: when you’re typing, you’re typing words. The more words you know, the easier they are to type, because you won’t have to stop and wonder if the word is spelled or used correctly. If you’re doing transcription and typing what someone else has dictated, your ability to catch and correct mistakes in vocabulary will make you a more valuable employee; it’s often the secretary who has the final responsibility of making sure business correspondence goes out error-free.

The fact that Ultimate Typing allows you to import any text to use in its exercises makes another important connection, because it means that when you’re practicing your typing skills to improve your speed and accuracy, you can use the vocabulary lists you’re studying. You can even import the words with their definitions, so that when you’re typing you’re also reading and absorbing the vocabulary information you need. If that isn’t a time-saver, we don’t know what is!

The third connection between vocabulary and typing has to do with speed. As you’ll learn when you go through the Ultimate Typing program, touch typing begins with your ability to memorize the placement of letter keys and train your brain to control your fingers so that they hit those keys automatically, without conscious effort. When you have an excellent vocabulary, it means you’ve also memorized the way words are spelled, and you don’t have to consciously think about it. Having both the spelling and the key combinations come automatically to your fingertips means that you’re able to type much faster, and your accuracy will be greater as well.

Adding this powerful tool to your vocabulary-building kit can only improve your chances of success! To learn more about Ultimate Typing, and how you can double or even triple your typing speed, visit the Ultimate Typing website.
