Typing Game - Typing Hints:

Type without looking at the keys. Use a quick stroke to strike and bounce off the keys. Think in terms of snapping your fingers quickly downward on the keys. Do not press or mush the key. Strike the key quickly and move on!

Sit erect. Your feet should be flat on the floor. Poor posture is tiring and leads to typing errors.

Avoid eyestrain. Eyestrain can occur when there is a reflection on the computer monitor. Adjust the angle of the monitor and/or the height of your chair to reduce reflections. The room should be slightly dark with no major rays of sunlight. Squinting is very fatiguing. Monitor shields, or even monitor screens might be of some help, but most relief occurs when you can eliminate background glare.

Move only the fingers needed. Move only the finger needed when striking a key. Do not allow other fingers to wander away from their assigned home-row keys. This will be awkward at first, and will require will-power. But you can do it! Let your brain train your fingers.

Error reduction. If errors are occurring on the bottom-row keys, try moving your chair back from the keyboard.

Use the correct finger-keystroke. Study the pictures in the NimbleFingers keyboarding program so you know which finger to use. Whisper each letter before striking the key.

Check your hands! Your fingers should be on the home-row keys and your hands should slant upward at the same slant as the keyboard. Do not let your wrists become lazy and rest against the desk or the keyboard.

Finger placement. Check to see that the fingers of your left hand reside on the a s d f keys. The fingers of your right hand should gently reside on the j k l ; keys. Your fingers should be slightly curved. Your wrists should be low but not resting on the keyboard. Your elbows should be close in, next to your side.

Re-key an exercise if you are not satisfied. After typing the beginning exercises, using the correct finger should be automatic. If you still have to look at the keyboard when you type a particular key, rerun the appropriate exercise.

Make adjustments. Check your distance from the keyboard. Adjust your chair when necessary to avoid a common problem – that of sitting too close to the keyboard. Also, adjust the angle of your monitor to minimize glare. Eyestrain is very tiring and will result in an increased number of errors. Remove excessive paperwork, and do not let direct sunlight in from windows that will result in screen glair.

Headaches? When was the last time you had your vision checked by a health care professional? If you don’t know, it may be time for a check up.

Have it your way. Downloadable exercises are useful to customize the Word Wacker typing program to your particular application such as medical, legal terminology and even civic topics.

You name the topic, and there probably is an online exercise available for FREE downloading .

Getting Started. The hardest part of learning to type is to get started. Use Nimble Fingers and see how quickly you can learn.
