I’m trying to figure out how actually create a custom typing course for specialized character strings and I’m not getting anywhere and cannot seem to find answers.
Any help would be appreciated.

Okay, my 8 Year old helped me figure it out. I didn’t look in the “Game” folder.
Now I can make a custom program of anything I want but its in the Game section and I just have to make sure he sticks the Drill.

What you do is go into the “Play” tab. Then on the Upper right side (right below the Typing score) click the blue link, mine says “ASDFJKL Short”. It’s a drop down menu. Choose " Typing Drills" …or anything else. It will open another window that you can either Create your own Drills or use a drill someone else created.
I’m making one because me and my 8yo are learning Coding and the constant use of characters is very difficult.

I wouldn’t say he was really much smarter than average. It’s just that I started homeschooling him when they closed the schools down for Covid … I just designed my own curriculum for him and run him through the exercises every day. Math, typing, reading, writing, music. We increase difficulty and add to the lessons a little at a time and I make sure we do not move forward until the last lesson has become Effortless. Before you know it, you can skip the Typing lessons because you are getting the exercise while doing the Coding. You can skip the addition, multiplication and division because its all getting done while adding fractions and so on.
We usually only work 3 or 4 hours a day.

That is so cool! I wish I could do that!
Hi everyone! Just wanted to bump this thread with additional information.
For anyone under a School or Homeschool account, the option to create your own text option must be allowed and enabled by your teachers first.
For Typesy VIP users, this is already automatically available.
Here’s how can create your own text: How do I change the contents used in the games and activities?
I hope this helps! Have a great week ahead.
