Typing
Keep your eyes on the screen. Do not look at the computer keyboard.

Say the letter of each key as you type, either out loud or silently.

Repeat each lesson until you feel comfortable with your control of the keys, before moving to the next lesson. Develop your feel for the keys before trying to increase your speed. Typing is a physical skill that requires practice, practice, and more practice. Start with short practice periods , such as 30 minutes a day, working up to longer periods of practice as you develop keyboard skills.
