Learn touch typing, properly

Fifty free touch typing lessons in two courses, taken one after the other. Foundations takes you from an empty keyboard to every letter, capital and full stop without looking down. Fluency takes you from knowing the keys to not thinking about them. Each lesson is a short read, a few drills that only use keys you already know, and a check that has to be passed cleanly.

How a lesson works

Every lesson runs the same short loop, one screen at a time, with the keyboard and your hands on it the whole way through.

  1. 01

    Read

    A few hundred words on what the fingers are about to do and why, with the keys drawn on the board.

  2. 02

    Drill

    Each new key gets a screen of its own: the finger that owns it, pressed five times. Then drills on those keys, mixed with the ones you know, then in words and lines. A drill waits for the right key, so an error is never typed over.

  3. 03

    Speed round

    Thirty seconds against the clock. Errors are counted rather than blocked, and nothing is passed or failed: it shows you what the drills built.

  4. 04

    Check

    A short passage under real typing rules. Reach the lesson's accuracy and speed and the next lesson opens. Go cleaner and quicker for up to three stars.

  5. 05

    End of a unit

    A short climb on every word you can type so far, then a Weak Spot Drill built from the keys and pairs you actually missed. Nobody else gets the same one.
