I used Typefaster and Shai's lessons. Both are available from the 'learn' section on this site. I'm typing at 40wpm after three weeks. I don't think it matters whether you could touch type in the first place. Just remember to never look at the physical keyboard but the virtual one on the screen.

Edit: This may help. https://forum.colemak.com/viewtopic.php?id=414. I tried Dvorak a couple of years ago but much prefer Colmak.

Personally, I found learning Colemak a lot easier than Dvorak. I gave up Dvorak after about a week. Progress just seemed to slow for me. I think most people here have the attitude that if you are happy with Dvorak you might as well stick with it.

I can pretty much guarantee that you won't be able to prove any speed differences. Things are too uncertain for that.

As far as ease of learning and use is concerned, I'd think that Dvorak has an edge for you. You already know a bit of Dvorak, and the Dvorak is implemented on machines already - Colemak needs an install unless you're using Ubuntu Hardy(?) [edit: nonono Drey; any X11-based distro will do!].

Colemak is coler than Dvorak!  ;)  Whether it's also cooler depends on who you ask, but since you asked on the Colemak forum most of the people here will think Colemak is the coolest there is. I know I do. It's the 21st century at your fingertips.

I personally find Colemak easier for a person who also has to type on other people's QWERTY boards all day and so needs to switch back and forth a lot. But ymmv I guess.

New school, old school, what do you expect the Colemak board to answer? GO COLEMAK! You won't regret it, that much I can and will promise you.

I never learned Qwerty.  I hunted and pecked for decades.  I learned Dvorak touch typing for about 3 months and did not care for it.  I have been with Colemak for over a year now and love it, my speed is around 50 wpm +/- 10. 

Colemak is the bomb.  :-)
of course you didn't expect Colemak forum not to be mostly fans, did you?

no, i was mostly expecting people to suggest colemak anyway :D

If as what you said in your original post is true that you had only been using Dvorak for a few days, that's not significant enough investment to stop you from switching in my book.   If you had been using Dvorak of five years then that be worth consideration, but not days.

ok so, I just did the hi-games.net speed test twice and got 11wpm both times. hopefully ill improve soon...

Its been a few weeks since I started anyway. I dont really do the lessons anymore, but am getting on good. I have summer holidays from school now and I am just going along at my own rate. Im not really typing much anyway, just the odd google search or forum post. Im sticking to it though, and improving slowly but surely. :D

Yes, it's better if you are practicing everyday (probably at least an hour or two) and working on accuracy.    The more confident you are in hitting the correct keys the more you will naturally speed up.  Work on proper posture to.  Pay attention to where you find letter  combinations that seem to roll nicely together.   Like "ing" and "tion". 

I practiced some of those like "ar ar ar ar ar ar ar"   or  "st st st st st st st"  or "ie ie ie ie ie ie ie"   
etc.
