There's or there are?

I'm not an expert at it, but I don't think there's really any typing techniques – your hands will gradually learn to flow on the keyboard effortlessly after long periods of practice when you reach to the high speeds say 60 and up.

And also, did I use the dash correctly? If not, what should I use there? because I don't want to end the sentence with a period as the thoughts are related.

Thanks a million!

techniques = plural. " No need for the words 'at it' and 'really'. The sentence reads better as: I'm not an expert , but I don't think there are any typing techniques.
