                  Green progress bar shows the percentage of completion of the current lesson.
                   Yellow Progress Bar reflects the acceptable time for typing a character. When the Yellow progress bar
                    runs out, it is recorded as a ‘Slowdown’ mistake.
                Sound Control: It helps to enable/disable sound while working on a lesson:
                   Click on the ‘Speakers Volume’ icon on the status bar.

              To begin your first lesson in Typing Tutor, follow these steps using the options on the Taskbar:

              Step 1:  First, choose the language  of the keyboard. This is  called the keyboard layout. For example,
                      you might select “EN” for English or EN 1. Introduction
              Step 2:  Next, pick a level that matches your skill level. If you’re new to typing, choose “Basics.”
