| The Five-Percent SolutionStephen Shastay
Court reporting students know that steno is a skill, but very few work on the "little things." All of the items on the following list are very basic. You learned them in theory class, but you haven't mastered them yet. You should be working on all of them every day. If you have a weak area, you may be losing five percent, ten percent, or more of your speed. If you have a lot of weak areas, you could be a full speed level or more below your true speed. Don't worry. No hard work is required.
