Read today’s tips first

Your session

Rest your fingers on the home row, press any key, and follow the key that lights up. There is no timer until the short check at the end.

About today

Practice text is useful, but the point is real life. Today you type the kinds of things you actually write: short emails, messages, addresses and form entries with names, numbers and punctuation. It is a good check that your new skills carry over outside the lessons.

Tips for today

  • Try typing your next real email with your new technique, without looking down.
  • Mixed text with numbers and symbols is slower for everyone. Be patient with it.

Common mistake

Switching back to old habits for "real" typing. Use the same technique everywhere.
