Every touch typist starts here. Your fingers rest on the home row and return to it after every key. Find the small bumps on F and J - they let you place your index fingers without looking.
Place your left index finger on F and your right index finger on J. Feel the bumps - that's your anchor. Press Space with either thumb.
Your middle fingers rest on D and K. Keep your index fingers on F and J while you reach.
Ring fingers rest on S and L. Keep your wrists relaxed and slightly raised.
Your pinkies rest on A and the semicolon. They're your weakest fingers, so go slowly and press firmly.
Reach sideways with your index fingers: left index to G, right index to H. Return to F and J right after.
These are real words made only from home row keys. Read the whole word before you type it.
Mix all home keys at a steady rhythm. Aim for accuracy above 95% before moving on.
