Tips for improving your typing skills

You can only improve your typing skill if you are doing it correctly. In other words you are using the right fingers to their corresponding keys.

If you don't use the correct fingers you will never learn how to touch-type or typing without looking at the keyboard.

Once you are using the right fingers, practice as much as you can and then eventually you would notice that you can already touch-type. Ideally when you can type with your eyes in the monitor rather than the keyboard, then you made it.

Here are the corresponding keys for each fingers.

3. Middle Man Left: E,D,C
