Many people cannot touch type, not because they are stupid, but because they have not found a simple and easy method of training. Watch 26 letters typed on keyboard in order from A to Z, according to standard fingering, and you can learn touch typing in seven days.

The so-called standard fingering is to put your hands on keyboard according to position shown in figure below, that is, put index finger of your left hand on letter F (there is a small protrusion on F key, which we usually call touch typing coordinates) , place your right index finger on letter J (the J key also has a touch typing coordinate), and then align four fingers side by side and place them on adjacent keys.

The second part of standard fingering is "parallel" movement of fingers. This means that from moment you place your hands on keyboard, four fingers on each hand should be aligned side by side and "same". and down". The third part of standard fingering is principle of oblique movement, that is, regardless of whether it is a left hand or a right hand, you must move up and down according to principle of "left high and right low". That is, rate of movement of index finger of left hand is 4 R F V in a line, and rate of movement of index finger of right hand is 7 U J M in a line.

Among them, 5 T G B keys next to left index finger are pressed by left index finger, and four 6 Y H N keys resting on right index finger are pressed by right index finger.

Once you have a preliminary understanding of standard fingering, you can understand division of labor for other keys on keyboard.

Under normal circumstances, some other keys with high usage on keyboard include: carriage return confirmation key (enter), space key, delete key (the backspace key in upper right corner of keyboard), and double-click. key (shift). The space key (also known as space key) is most commonly used function key in typing process, and you can use both thumbs to type along with you (most people like to use their right thumb, this is not limited to ); The enter (confirmation) key is second most commonly used function key and is pressed with little finger of right hand; delete key is third most commonly used function key during typing and is commonly used to correct (delete) typos, and is also pressed with little finger of right hand to tap.

The so-called double-click key (shift) is an auxiliary selection key when there are two characters on button of key, for example, one marked with number 1! , after you press key (shift) with little finger of your right hand, touch number 1 with little finger of your left hand to enter it. Others like @, :—— etc. have same principle and you can figure it out yourself. It should be noted that since keys to be double-clicked are distributed to left and right of number keys, layout of double-click key is also placed to left and right under keyboard so that you can type by hand.

Once you get familiar with these standard fingerings, rest is practice. In other words, you can look at keyboard in order of 26 English letters and use standard fingering to type them one after other. Calculated on practice of four letters a day, your touch typing will be mostly successful within 7 days.

While typing, you can create a new document on your computer and practice it over and over again. Don't train deliberately fast. Human fingers are very smart. it should press button by itself. When you are really experienced, it will soon become a matter of course, as so-called "success comes by itself".
