Here's another choice for learning to type. The website gcflearnfree.org has a typing tutorial that talks you through each lesson and tells you how you're doing. You can click on "Learn" and watch videos that show you what to do and then have you practice it, or you can click on the the "Practice" button to choose the letters or keys you want to work on. Whichever you choose, you'll hear a voice giving you feedback--"Great!" "You got it right!"--but you can turn off the audio if you get tired of it. The lessons remind you that you will be frustrated and discouraged at first, but continuing to practice, even with mistakes, will produce the results you want.
My suggestion: Click on the link below and try this different approach to typing instruction and practice:
