Learn Touch Typing By Taking Your Free Typing Lesson OnlineHere's your free typing lesson. Learn typing quickly and easily. When you take the beginner typing-lesson, you can learn and typing on your keyboard, and even this simple typing lesson should help you start to type fast on your computer. Here's the free Internet typing lesson (but take it "as is". We can't take responsibility in regard to the accuracy of this typing lesson, so if you want to be sure, consult a typing teacher or use a typing tutor program): Place the fingers of your left hand on the middle row of the keyboard. The middle row is also called the "home row" - When your fingers are on this row, they are "home." After hitting keys on the other rows, always bring your fingers back "home". The fingers of the Left Hand are placed on the keyboard in this order:
The fingers of your right hand are placed on the Home Row in this order:
On some keyboards, there's a little bump on the J key and the F key (and on other keyboards on other keys of the home row). This is to let your fingers know that they're on the right keys on the home row. The thumbs of both hands are used only to hit the Space Bar. Some typing instructors suggest to hit the Space Bar only with the Thumb of the righ hand, and for left-handed people - of the left hand. When you place the above mentioned fingers of the right hand and of the left hand on their respective keys on the keyboard, you'll see that 2 keys still remain, which have no fingers assigned to them. These 2 keys are the G and the H. The Index Fingers, therefore, will be used to hit these 2 keys as well. So, when you need to hit the G key, you'll do so with the Index finger of the left hand. And when you want to hit the H, you'll use the Index finger of the right hand. After hitting the G with the left-hand Index finger, return your finger immediately on its regular place, on the F key. After using the Index finger of the right hand to hit the H key, return it immediately on the J key. When you're doing touch typing, thus typing without looking at the keyboard, you can feel the bumps on the J key and the F key, to make sure that your fingers are back "home." Free Typing Lesson - Upper Row
Let's continue the free typing lesson online. Now, place your fingers on the upper row of the computer keyboard, one row below the number keys.
