What is Touch Typing?
Touch typing is the ability to type without looking at the keys. You rely on muscle memory. This approach makes you faster and more accurate. It also reduces fatigue and increases focus.
Why touch typing matters
Typing without looking frees mental capacity. You can think about words, not keys. That leads to cleaner writing and fewer mistakes.
How to begin
Start with the home row. Use small drills. Practice daily. Add new keys gradually. Keep your eyes on the screen at all times.
Common pitfalls
Don’t rush. Avoid straining your wrists. If you revert to looking down, pause and slow the pace. Relearn slowly and steadily.
