With all the two-finger typists out there, fast ones, surely there's really no right or wrong way to type any more. When we were in school, we were taught how to type "properly," but everyone ends up doing whatever works best for them. From the time I took typing in junior high school, I've used my left hand for the space bar because it's never felt right using the "correct" hand, even though I'm right-handed. And when it comes to numbers, fugghedaboutit. After many years of typing, my fingers automatically know when they've made a mistake.
The only way to improve your speed is to practice. You can find a page in a book and set a 5-minute timer for yourself. It's very easy to do, and best of all, it's free. Whichever method you try, good luck--you'll get there!
