Klavaro is a simple tutor to teach correct typing, almost independently of language and very flexible regarding to new or unknown keyboard layouts. Its key features are: * Internationalization * Ready to use keyboard layouts * Keyboard layout editor * Basic course * Adaptability, velocity and fluidness exercises * Progress charts.

OMG! Words! is free, cheesy and somewhat addictive. Better still it’s easy to play.If you have an internet connection OMG! Words! will pull glean a list of words from recent posts for you to ‘battle’ against (If you don’t have an internet connection then it just uses magic).

From OMG!Ubuntu!

Installation

Add the PPAs ppa:tommybrunn/omgwords and ppa:bartbes/love-stable to your Software Sources (Here's how to do that) and install omgwords from the Software Center.


I have been happy with Klavaro. It is better than previous tutors I have tried.
