Yes, but I had to type very long reports for my work. Fortunately, it stuck with me.

Yep, took typing class in high school somewhere around the late 1960's and when computer systems became commonly available in the early 1980's the typing skills came right back in short order.

10th grade typing class proved to be one of the most useful classes of high school.

I have hard time, even looking at the keys.
Way back in high school 60+years ago,I signed up for a typing course. After two weeks, the teacher advised to switch to a shop course, I was so bad.. It has not got any better since then.

Yes. Typing class was a graduation requirement at my high school. It is a great time saver. In hindsight, it is one of the most useful classes I ever took.

Nope. I shunned typing class in high school because I was going to fly airplanes, not be a secretary. That was decades before computers, you realize.
Never learned. Despite being a successful writer, I still look at the keys and type with two fingers. Pretty quick at it, but I often get tpyos...

I think it was sophmore year of h.s. when I took typing. Fast forward 4 years and I get a call from the registrar at college, "I see you're signed up for graduation, problem is you don't have enough credits." After some scrambling I was able to sign up for a keyboarding class. Prof told me his goal is to get the students to 40 wpm and if I could do that I could test out. I practiced on the PC one day and showed up for his class the next. Took a timed test, made the 40 wpm goal got my credits and was able to graduate. So yeah, I was glad I took that typing class in h.s.

I can..  I had a full year of typing class in high school. Get caught lookin' at yer fingers and the teacher moved yer butt into the front, center row so she could watch yer every move...  I was in that class when Kennedy was shot.. She cried most of the hour.. But she was a great teacher overall..
