A Simple Touch-Typing Guide
Comfort first. Accuracy next. Speed will follow.
Find your home row
Place your left fingers on A, S, D and F, and your right fingers on J, K, L and semicolon. Rest your thumbs near the space bar. The raised marks on F and J help you find this position without looking down.
Use the on-screen hands
The highlighted finger shows which finger to move. Return to the home position after each key. Use the opposite hand for Shift when typing a capital or shifted symbol. Keep your shoulders relaxed.
Understand the feedback
Green means correct. Red means incorrect. Orange means a letter was corrected after a mistake. Spaces do not have underlines. Backspace corrects the passage but the original error still counts in accuracy.
Hindi Krutidev practice
Keep the computer input language set to English (US). The on-screen keyboard displays Hindi labels for the physical Krutidev 010 keys. Matras and joined letters may require several keys; the feedback updates after every key.
Build a daily rhythm
Start with five or ten comfortable minutes. Focus on 85% accuracy or better before increasing speed. Take breaks when your hands feel tired and use games as optional practice between lessons.
