first,
Get in position. How you sit can affect your typing efficiency. A bad position can result in more errors and slower typing.- Make sure that your keyboard is at a comfortable height for your fingers.
- Sit up straight.
- Put your feet flat on the ground.
second,
Put your fingers in the home position.Place your right index finger on the "J" key and let the other 3 fingers fall naturally onto the "K", "L" and ";" keys.
Place your left index finger on the "F" key and let the other 3 finger fall naturally onto the
"D", "S", and "A" keys.
Type each key from left to right: a s d f j k l ;.
You shouldn't have to move your fingers from their positions, just press the keys that they are resting on.
Repeat, but this time capitalize: A S D F J K L :. Use the shift key.
Push it by moving only your pinkie and pressing and holding it while pushing the desired letter with your other hand.
I.e.: When the letter you would like capitalized is typed with your left hand, you press the right shift key with your right pinkie.
When the letter you would like capitalized is typed with your right hand, you press the left shift key with your left pinkie.
Become familiar with the rest of the alphabet and where it is positioned on the keyboard.
Get into home position and type,
Start looking away and at your monitor to make sure you're typing the sentence correctly.
Correct any mistakes you make, eventually without looking.
**If you have a hard time not glancing at the keyboard, buy a typing cover if this is hard for you. They are thin rubber skins that stretch over your keyboard.
Tips..
Type with quick and defined motions. Don't smash the keyboard , that is, don't just hit keys without aiming first, which usually results in pressing multiple keys.
To increase your speed and accuracy, make sure your wrist are elevated. You'll move quicker and have fewer errors.
If you're trying to receive a typing certificate, try (if possible) practicing on a regular keyboard and not a laptop keyboard. The letters on some laptop keyboards can be closer together than the ones you'll be using to take the typing test.
p/s: i type real slow using this...but it worth to try...
I notice that, F and J has a little bump that you can feel..now I know what it use for.
