Tips for this lesson
- Take a Break. Typing uses small muscles that tire quickly. Take a short break every 20 minutes: stand up, stretch your fingers, roll your shoulders, and look at something far away. You will return fresher and faster.
- Don't Look Down. The urge to peek at the keyboard is strong, but resist it! Your keyboard has small bumps on the F and J keys — feel them with your index fingers to find home position without looking.
