What you will likely find is that the bottoms of your hands are touching the trackpad causing the cursor to jump around, this is very common with laptops. You can often disable the trackpad if you will be typing for a while or if you use an external mouse. Most Toshiba laptops have a "hotkey" to disable the trackpad temporarily. The ones I have seen are usually on F9, so you hold down the "Fn" key (bottom left side next to Cntrl), then press F9. This is a toggle and will enable and disable the trackpad. I almost always use a mouse with my laptops just for this reason. Some laptops, (usually HP) will have an actual button near the trackpad that will disable it temporarily for extended typing. The trick is often to just learn how to type without letting the bottoms of your hands touch the pad, and you will find this issue disappears.
