Typing guide
Touch typing practice
Touch typing means typing by feel, with each finger responsible for its own keys. It is the most reliable way to type faster and with fewer mistakes.
Why touch typing helps
When you stop looking at the keyboard, your attention stays on what you're writing. Each finger travels a short, consistent path, so speed and accuracy improve together.
A simple practice routine
Begin on the home row, then practice common words in a timed typing test. Check your accuracy after each test and slow down if it drops.
Use Drill Lab for personalized typing drills on your weakest keys, and try Endurance to build consistency over longer passages. Signed-in players can track their typing progress over time.
Quick tips
- Aim for 95% accuracy or better before pushing for speed.
- Keep a steady rhythm instead of bursting through easy words.
- Practice a little every day to build muscle memory.
