Touch - typing technique

How does touch typing method work? Everything is simpler than can seem. The keyboard is divided inrepparttar 147026 areas; moreover each area corresponds torepparttar 147027 appropriate quantity of fingers, for instance keys QAZWSX should be typed with a little finger. The position ofrepparttar 147028 hands also depends onrepparttar 147029 areas; your left hand's fingers should be placed onrepparttar 147030 home row keys ASDF and your right hands' fingers should be onrepparttar 147031 keys JKL;. The letters onrepparttar 147032 keyboard are positioned so thatrepparttar 147033 most frequently used letters are placed inrepparttar 147034 central row and are pressed withrepparttar 147035 forefingers.

Byrepparttar 147036 way, there are a lot of different variants of layouts. The type ofrepparttar 147037 layout is also important inrepparttar 147038 development ofrepparttar 147039 technique of typing. The most habitual and accustomed is QWERTY, moreover it isrepparttar 147040 most frequently used layout, but according torepparttar 147041 results of testing Dvorak proved to be more effective as it increasedrepparttar 147042 speed of typing for 20 - 40 percents.

In touch typing not onlyrepparttar 147043 correct position ofrepparttar 147044 hands andrepparttar 147045 type ofrepparttar 147046 layout are significant, butrepparttar 147047 position ofrepparttar 147048 body also plays an essential role. Your posture should be straight, legs shouldn't be crossed, palms and fingers should be loose as though they rest overrepparttar 147049 keyboard. Imagine that you are having an apple in your hand and it is going to slip. You should hitrepparttar 147050 keys lightly and abruptly. The quieterrepparttar 147051 sound fromrepparttar 147052 keyboard is,repparttar 147053 better it is. Touchrepparttar 147054 keys withrepparttar 147055 finger cushions and afterrepparttar 147056 hit withdrawrepparttar 147057 finger fromrepparttar 147058 key.

Hence, I recommend you not to procrastinate and to set to touch typing right now. Remember "Knowing how to study is like knowing how to fish. It is a set of learning skills that lasts a lifetime and brings many rewards. Just as there are ways to know that you are a competent fisherman, there are ways to develop skills competency." And one of them is touch typing.
