I am stuck on this WPM and it’s getting frustrating because no matter how I try, I can’t achieve my desired goal.

Hi!

The average typing speed of most people ranges from 40–45 WPM but if you might want to have a speed higher than that, Typesy will help. It is good for both beginner and skill builder and another feature that is good about this program is it tracks your progress making sure you can monitor your improvement within a specific span of time. It has video and audio assistance as well to guide you about the finger placement in each corresponding keys.
