I used to be a hunt-and-peck typist. For me, first you have to build muscle memory for key fingerings, which key is pressed by what finger. Then you can start to get faster. Building a strong foundation first.

I would have this site open on one window: www.keybr.com

And this image on another for reference: Image

KeyBR has “levels” where you work on a specific set of letters first, until you’re fast enough and they give you then next set of letters, adding on to what you’ve already done.

Once you’ve completed all letters, you stop professing and just type words with all letters.

For me, after my first completion of keyBR, I spent a day or so practicing at the “endgame.” After that, I’d restart the entire module from scratch, back to the individual letters. Rinse and repeat.

After about a month or two, I was already touch-typing.

Then I got really into monkeytype.com, and started typing faster and faster.
