Quarantine day 11 : Learning to Type Fast.

Another tip is, spelling/typos is more important to correct than speed. So work on not making mistakes in spelling/typos. The more you practice on correct spelling, the speed will come after. The speed will come naturally because as you practice not making typos, the brain is remembering the keys. The more typos you make, the brain is remembering the typos which will impede your speed capabilities. I hope that made sense.

The idea is to not have to look at the keys once you've memorized where everything is and typing becomes second nature for your fingers. Thanks for watching and contributing!

Thanks for this. I have always been a two finger typing who is fast that makes a lot of mistakes. You made a lot of sense in this video so thank you. It will take awhile, but I’m going to practice much as possible.

After 9 years still one of the best video on this subject. Congrats!

this is great, I'm sure I can learn with your explanations :) simple yet very detailed for me who's first time in using keyboards , thank you

This actually helped me alot... 2 years ago my speed was about 20 wpm now its about 60-70wpm... So thanks🙏

Thank you for your wonderful video. I watched the video a few day ago and started practicing as you told. Now I can type a lot faster using the original technique. Thanks a lot 😊

most people are here because their school didnt teach them how to type lol

This video has helped me so much! I was so little when I watched this video and now I can type fast! I am just so thankful for this video! Thank you Anson Alexander!

Anson, you are an amazing teacher. I'm sending this link to my sister for my two nephews - ages 11 and 9. Many schools these days don't offer typing classes like schools did when I was a kid, so they're pointer-typers, to borrow from your phrase. It's great that you stress that pointer-typers need to keep practicing the right way to type in order to be able to type really fast. Hopefully that will keep my nephews from giving up. Thank you.

As someone who types for a living I do have a couple of tips. First, make sure your chair is the correct height and that you're sitting straight up. Early on it's important to practice typing correctly, practice makes permanent so doing it wrong over and over engrains bad habits. In addition to exercises with repetitive letters, it also good to use exercises with random groups of letters rather than words, this keeps you from anticipating the next letter and helps build accuracy.

Hi .I am Vidit .I am a 14 year old .I was watching videos and suddenly came across this one .Thank you I learnt a lot .You were like an inspiration for me .Hats off to your typing speed.

you addressed all the points I had in mind. Thank you.

Very useful Alex! More power to you for making people learn & become better!

i remember watching this 2 years ago and now im the champion in typing in my grade level :D

Thanks a ton bro for the tutorial. One of the best so far...

Exactly what I needed! Thanks a lot!

Really clear and a great demo thanks for the simplicity of it.

I totally agree to stick with it. I’ve been learning for three days now and I can say I have improved so much each day. It slow and sometimes I get annoyed but then I’m like no, you will get better and I continue and smile through. I like playing games too and typing quizzes online.

Anson is very good at explaining his and the techniques of typing faster. thanks Anson.

Me: Why did they put the backspace button so far from my fingers? That's the key I need the most!

I’m 64-years old and for the first time since the 1970’s I have hope that I can learn to type:)

Thank you so much, I know about typing, I have not practiced lately and I will. It certainly is a refreshing.

I am teacher and this really helped my 2nd graders when distance learning, as I can't show them my computer keyboard easily. Thank you. Just FYI, though, you the right hand the left hand in section 1:21. :)

Awesome video for beginners. The best! Simple to understand. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank u

I started with 10 figure when class start at end of the class I was using only using one finger Thx for like ❤️

Simple and exact technique with accurate advices

This helped me so much in my school typing without looking at the keyboard was skill you needed and this man helped me so much thank you I can type 98 words per minute without looking at the keyboard

really helped me a lot thanks!YAY

thank you for the tutorial, really helped

Thanks for the video! I'm learning how to type and wow I'm struggling. I appreciate to encouragement to keep at it.

U would really be a good teacher for me, cause u carry out instructions step by step where by I would be able to understand.

am i the only on watching this? 2019 AND THNX FOR LEARNING ME HOW TO TYPE I NEEDED THAT

Thanks for the motivation to keep using the right method, I just want to type with my pointer fingers because the home row method feels tiresome and highly demotivating to learn. I will try to remember your words and continue practicing. Hope I get fast eventually!

Thanks for the heads up I will be applying the right technical way for typing 😉

Thank You Anson, Very Helpful!

Anson that was an excellent tutorial. I being a trainer at work understand the importance of quality training. Thank you for taking the time to explain the do's and don'ts of typing for beginners. I will apply the methods and techniques you displayed and work diligently on developing good typing skills and increasing my speed. Thank you for your excellent guidance and perspective.

Thanks a lot you finally thought me how to learn type faster, you’re the best instructor god bless you ❤✌️🙏🙏🌹

this guy is SO GOOD ,thank you so much for this video i'm practicing touch typing while writing this anyone can see that this guy is a good teacher i totally recommend this video he totally rules out the other videos i've watched:)

I see you are the best typing Teacher. God bless you and keep you safe.🙏🙏🙏.

best vedio i had seen for basic typing speed thank you

Thank you so much. it helps me a lot :)

Great video. One point I learned is the REASON people type faster with the "touch" method is not having to look at the keys. In my typing class in 9th grade the keys were covered so students were forced to learn the keys by memory and not by sight. LOTS of time is lost when looking at the keys. A good touch typist can either 1) keep eyes focused on the document from which he/she is typing, or 2) watch the screen while typing to catch any errors right away.

The best typing video on RU-vid! Thank Lord!

Thank you for sharing this video❤

thanks boss for helping keyboard basics

Bruh, I've been practicing this technique a lot, every since I started coding and c-stem, and this has honestly helped a lot. In the past 2 months, I came from 30-35 wpm to 87 wpm.

Thank you for this helpful video! I am taking a 911 calltaker/dispatcher exam so this is perfect to help me practice typing 😁

Thank you so much for this!! I have been practising this everyday!!

I used to have my own way of typing that I developed just from playing games as a kid; using only the middle and pointer fingers on both hands and it peaked me at 120 WPM. Sure, it was amazing enough but it felt like my hands were always tired by doing so and it was like I had already reached the method's limit. Once I started forcing on really changing my habits and practised typing properly by actually using four fingers, I can now easily reach 130+ WPM peak, 120 WPM by just typing calmly, and the biggest and I say the most important bonus is that I rarely make mistakes on my typing anymore because the allocations will make it so your fingers aren't stressed out when typing because the workload is evenly distributed-unlike my original typing where my middle and pointer fingers had to move a whole lot. I'd definitely recommend anyone to change their typing for the better as well. It's never too late and it will help you type really satisfyingly, yes, I forgot to mention the keyboard sounds that it makes when you type consistently (no stutters between words) sounds really cool, almost an ASMR even.

I went to a business high school, we learned on and non-electric typewriter the first year positioning our fingers on the home row and learning the reaches. By the second year we would be on a IBM Selectric machines (electric) it was so much fun. It is like riding a bike you never forget!!

OH!This is the best video I've ever seen!Thank you!

Simple. Perfect tutorial

I remeber watching this video probably a year ago when I didn't know a thing about touch typing. And when I tried I felt like pulling my hair because it seemed so difficult. Now I can type at 50 WPM speed (not that great). Feeling so good. And I am also trying to improve my speed 😊

Guys if you want to type faster you need to practice. Try typing games like TypeRacer. It really helped me a lot. I used to do 25 Word per min when I started months ago. Now I can go 70 wpm without looking at the keyboard.

Thank so much sir. Typing is my problem but am going to learn through your help.

Thx bro I was thinking why I m doing this but you cleared my doubts..

Thanks, Alex! This is just the training I've been looking for. I will be getting your course. My mission is to master typing once and for all by the end of 2018.

I mean I know this video's old by now and I'm definitely behind the typing curve here, but thanks for this. Clear, concise, and easy to put into practice. I'm using the advice in the video to type this comment. Sort of slow going right now, but I can already tell it's going to be much more natural than my chicken-picking once I get it down.

Thank you. The need to type faster is really necessary

Dear Anson ,u have wonderfully shown the basics of typing Amazing.

I remember I had this typing class. I was pretty bad, only 40 or so wpm without looking, but now I can usually get around 100 plus wpm. I remember there was this one kid who could get like 60 wpm without looking and it blew my mind. I bet if I took that class now, I'd have destroyed it, easy. Edit: Just looked back at this comment after a long time. I'm at a 180WPM average.

Hello! Anson, thank you very much for uploading this useful vid.

thanks alot man .. I feel little awkward at the beginning..but seems like practice helping.. thumbs up!

That was a very interesting article, here are a few more tips on how to play the piano… Try practicing for an hour a day, or 30 minutes if you have a busy schedule. Do more practice whenever you have more time. For example, on weekends you can do more than an hour, like 2 or three, or even more. This is very helpful because it pulls you out of the routine of piano playing, and lets you practice more and perfect the pieces you play. Listen to the song or piano piece you are playing. For example, if you are taking piano lessons and are about to play a new piece, you can try searching on the internet for videos or songs and hear how it sounds. This can be very helpful because it teaches you how a song is played and lets you recognize the 'emotion,' the piece is giving off. Practice sight-reading and don't worry about making mistakes. This can be very helpful, because it's almost like scanning a paragraph and looking at the picture. It helps you to understand what the passage is trying to convey before you actually read it and lets you know what comes next. This is the same with music, and it can help you stop making mistakes. (I discovered about these and more from Denelle piano lesson website )

Thanks bro it is helpful...... And ya thats true nothing happens overnight

This really help. Thank you❤️

I will try this method Anson, Thank you for the tips, hope that it will help me with my typing speed.

I think it's just practice. I'm not 'super fast', but I can type without looking. Step 1: Index fingers go on the F and J keys. Step 2: Use the internet for a few years and get into stupid arguments that you take far too seriously. Step 3: Voila! You can now type without looking.

Good man; what an great explanation

It was very helpful. Thank you very much for sharing.

One thing to note : In a good keyboard, there's always a small underscore-like bump at J and F button to help your fingers back in default position.

big thumps up 👍👍👍👍
