Frequently asked questions
How does the course work?
Each lesson introduces a few new keys and mixes them with the ones you already know. Type the text shown: the on-screen keyboard highlights the next key and the color tells you which finger to use. At the end you see your speed and accuracy and earn up to 3 stars.
What is the home row position?
Your index fingers rest on F and J (the keys with a small bump) and the other fingers rest on the keys next to them: A, S, D, F with the left hand and J, K, L and the next key with the right. Thumbs rest on the space bar. After each key, your fingers return to this position.
How do I earn 3 stars?
With 98% accuracy or more and at least 25 words per minute. 95% and 15 WPM earn 2 stars, and 90% accuracy earns 1. Focus on accuracy: speed comes with practice.
Does it work with my keyboard?
