      There is no need for desktop-based typing software these days. I would suggest online websites which provides free typing lessons with practice exercises. Even some of them are providing free performance analytics showing your weakness. Below is a list of online typing platforms which can help you in improving your speed.

      You should also try speed tests. These games will provide you with some pre-written  text and will challenge you to type it as quickly as you can. The interesting part is that like a multiplayer game you would compete against other typists.

      Some free great typing games are Typeracer, Typing.com, and TypingTest.
