Abstract
In this paper, we implemented a user - oriented adaptive English typing program using class and function structure provided by Python to get English learning effect while effectively typing English on PC. The user of the implemented English typing program creates a text file of required English example sentences and links them to use it for direct English typing exercise. In addition, based on the English sentence used in the English typing exercise, it is possible to obtain the English learning effect by providing the ability to perform the memorization test. The interface of the program is structured in the form of a game so that it can be accessed interestingly, and the ranking among the users is disclosed to provide a positive function. We expect that the implemented program will improve the user's English typing speed and improve the English learning effect.
