Ten fingers - master your keyboard using ten fingers
    The Statistics - If this feature is on, you can check your error rate and typing speed. Also, the time elapsed from the start of the current lesson is displayed. If you take a break, after about 6 seconds the timer automatically stops. So you can interrupt the lesson whenever you want and the timer will be waiting for your return. The current typing speed and error rate are displayed in two separate bars. If a bar goes red it means you are in trouble. Either you are making too many typing errors or your typing speed is too low.
    Text - This region is reserved for the text which you have to copy correctly in order to qualify for the next level. The cursor shows your current position. The characters you have copied are turning grey. Whenever you make an error, the incorrect character is displayed in red below the line.

    The Helping Keyboard - The helping keyboard helps you speed up your orientation whenever you cannot find the right key. On this keyboard, the key (or keys) to be pressed next will blink . You can also switch off this feature once you have become familiar with the location of all the keys used in the current lesson.
    The Helping Hands - The helping hands guide you in the same way as the helping keyboard does. They tell you which is the right finger to use for the given key. Right from the beginning, it is important that you learn to copy the text without looking at the real keyboard.
