I found the best way to learn is to just do it. I would go to the local library and get slow steno tapes so I could learn how to type while listening to someone speak. It took me a little bit to learn but I now use the dictaphone on a daily basis. I have 2 ways of receiving my dictation, one a tape which I use my machine on my desk and the other is through my e-mail which I have my headset and footpedal attached to the computer.
For the most part, I have no problems with the people who dictate. One guy imparticular tends to mumble when he speaks and sometimes I cannot understand him. I also transcribe recorded statements and sometimes have difficulty understand the people on the other end of the conversation. If I do not understand something, I leave a blank and send it to the person who sent it to me and they fill in the blanks (or tell me what to fill in).
Good luck
