HOW TO TOUCH TYPE
STEP1:
Sit up straight with your elbows bent at a 90-
degree angle
Touch typing involves a lot of muscle memorization,
but it also involves good posture, too. Find a
comfortable chair that supports your back, where you
can sit upright for long periods of time. Keep your
elbows bent at right angles and curl your fingers over
the keyboard so it’s easier to type. Additionally, try to
keep your head about an arm’s length away from the
screen, while keeping your wrists straight and your
fingers curled.
STEP2:
Curl your fingers on the “home” keys, or
“ASDF” and “JKL”
.” Meet the home keys, which are the most
important keys used during touch typing. These
will help you find your way around the keyboard.
Keep in mind that there are different home keys for
different fingers. You can identify the home row by
finding the lifted ridges on the “F” and “J” keys.
STEP3:
Find the different keys that your left hand
will touch
Divide your keyboard into different “zones,” which
will help you fine-tune your touch typing. Use your
left pointer finger to touch the “V,” “B,” “R,” “T,”
“5,” and “6” keys and your left middle finger to
touch the “E,” “C,” and “4” keys. Try to touch the
“W,” “X,” and “3” keys with your left ring finger,
while using your left pinky to touch the “Q,” “Z,”
“1,” and “2” keys.
STEP4:
Search for the keys that your right
hand will press
Use your right pointer finger to touch the
“H,” “N,” “M,” “U,” “Y, and “7” keys, then
use your right middle finger to touch the
“comma,” “I,” and “8” keys. Aim to use your
right ring finger to touch the “O,” “9,” and
“period” keys, while using your right pinky
finger to touch the “0,” “P,” “backslash,”
“apostrophe,” “minus sign,” “equal sign,”
and both bracket keys
