Put your fingers on the yellow-colored keys: A S D F for the left hand, and J K L ; for the right hand. This is the position, in which speed typing is done, and from this position we reach for all other keys. In the first lesson, we practice speed typing the letters J and F, and continue to speed type all other letters. For the most part, practicing will be with words having a meaning. But at first, to get used to speed-typing, we will practice the lessons with random text. Use the lessons only for the beginning to gradually get used to speed-typing. Please understand that the real practice is with meaningful words and that you don't learn a lot from practicing random text. To practice real words, copy a text from anywhere (sites, word processor, etc.) and paste your text inside the text box by clicking the right mouse button and...

The keys of early typewriters were, sensibly enough, laid out in alphabetical order. The impetus for change was not exactly the yearning for blistering speed that has brought us together here today, but rather necessity. Early typewriters were mechanical and prone to jamming. The QWERTY layout solved that problem by spreading the popular keys across the board, inadvertently creating an ideal layout for distributing the effort of typing to all ten fingers rather than the traditional hunt and peck method. Progress and fate hand in hand once more. The left index finger will control the R and T keys, the right index finger will control the Y and U keys. The left middle finger will control the E key, the right middle finger will control the I key. The left ring finger will control the W key, the right ring finger will control the O key....

The first row of the keyboard, the Z-X-C-V-B row cannot claim the relevant importance in the pursuit of touch typing of the home row. Nor can it contest the international fame or high profile of the hard working QWERTY row. But there is one way in which it can surpass them both. Once you have mastered the first row you will have learnt all the alpha keys on the keyboard, the most popular punctuation keys, and have completed three lessons of our five lesson course. Bravo! In keeping with the intensive nature of our course and to keep your interest at a fever pitch we shall introduce capitals in this lesson. Your keyboard should have two shift keys, one to the left, one to the right. The proficient typist will use the little finger of their inactive hand to operate one of the shift keys when capitals are required.
