my entire life ive learned how type while looking at the keys and ive recently tried to start how to type while not looking at the keys and looking at the screen instead
You can get keyboards with all blank key caps if you really want! I have one at work almost like that due to wear 😀
@maxirunpl I meant along the lines that it forces you to look more at the screen as the keyboard gives less away. As with most things practice is key.
I once taught 4-8 grade students touch typing and painted the keyboards black but it did not help them not look at the keyboard while typing at all. Most students still glanced on the blank keyboard every now and then. So I got creative and had the schools workshop teacher build an upside down U shaped structure from wood that I covered the keyboard, mouse and the student's hands with, so that they could not see the keyboard. That seemed to work the best. I also tried towels but the hands got hot and sweaty under the towels
I'm learning how to touch type at 26 years old, I'm seven days in and trying to use my pinkies is super frustrating and painful lol hopefully the pain goes away.
It does, our age difference isn't much but the more you practice the easier it gets.
Never give up. You can do it.
7 days is not enough. You need to do a proper course which takes about 6 weeks, and you need to attain finger memory. There's plenty of free online courses that can help. - from a professional typist, 136 wpm.
please share the sites that offer free online courses. Thanks in advance
I think a traditional clicky clacky keyboard is better to learn on. I have a laptop and I've noticed my typing got slower and less precise over time. The keys are just too short and don't provide satisfying feedback when pressed. Edit I commented this right before you brought in the keyboard lol😂
It’s called a mechanical keyboard, and they make very good ones nowadays you can get ones with silent switches, switches with a little bump in them, and then switches that actually have a click in them. I think the tactile ones with the silent bump of the best ones to use for typing,
i'm currently trying to teach myself to switch from using my index finger for the space bar to my thumb. I can surprisingly type an average of 130-140 WPM with my normal finger configuration, but when I switch to thumb on the space bar, I'm slowed to around 100 WPM (still not bad, I know). Even just switching one finger like this is super difficult. Now there are times where my brain glitches out because it doesn't know whether it wants to use thumb or index for the space and therefore I just seize lmao
63 is not bad. I have learned to type with peck and hunt and now can do it pretty decently with muscle memory. I want to learn how to type properly with all ten.
omg thanks for making this video it's so inspiring
1:45 real man i did gave up too and never looked back
last line got me😂
this video needs more views! an excellent, quality video
Wonderful! Thanks so much. I practice on a laptop that doesn't work.
reaching 80 wpm took me 3 months when at the start i wasnt even able to make enough force with pinky to press a button. I held my best socre at 73 for 2 weeks when suddenly one day i just got 82 back to back and 70 wpm feels slow its really hard to learn type of skill. My first 2-3 weeks was memorizing finger placement and movements for each key. Im honestly amazed that after just week you get 45 i got taht after like a month
Where did you get your external keyboard?
The ending was so sad 😂 but also relatable lol
Good to see a realistic video
yo I was in the same spot as you so I feel what you're feeling. Keep going get 100wpm as your goal
the key to speed is not thinking
In the Army in formation I did appear
Captain said need for typist is severe
No hand went up from any my peer
To type for the army I did volunteer
Little did I know typing to be a career
I feel so stupid typing with two fingers during lectures, i will try all these and hopefully i will get better!!
well I’m on iPad and ONLY typing with the 2 thumbs and averaging about 97 wpm am I normal?
Why is he randomly reminding me of Dominic Thiem the tennis player😂
Typing the “right” way is so uncomfortable especially on a laptop
It gets easier as your muscles adapt. I use to find it uncomfortable as well so I wanted to go back with just two index fingers but the more I use all my fingers the easier it go and the more comfortable it got typing the right way.
Bro, you are so funny. I literally spent 5 mins watching your video, and you told me to stay with two fingers.
he actually say that i got backed on my 2 fingers again
thanks man i loved the website
Tried touch typing for the first time and I feel like I don't know how to type anymore 😂
What website did you use
I'm scared of how fast I am with just my pointer fingers and SOMETIMES my middle fingers.
don't spend too long on this or else you hurt your fingers, train a bit by bit and you will get better with time
i type with about 6 fingers using wasd and the side of my keyboard as my home row needless to say i type slowly
It doesn't matter as long as your job doesn't require you to type intensively and you don't have a tendency to get into arguments online.
63 wpm with 2 fingers is pretty good.
7 days is possible for 70 wpm if you are kid because of a much higher learning mech than adults so if your a kid watching if you work this much you will get this fast
I have the exact same computer EVERYTHING SAME THE COLOR THE KEYS THE COMPUTER THE WHOLE THING
It's still working in 2024 "It's a funny way to learn typing ( Dance Mat Typing )
How did he managed to get 60 wpm with 2 fingers 😂😂??
i ussualy use index and middle finger and thumb for space and pinky for enter
63 wpm????? With just two fingers?????????? That is really good, at that point i dont think you need to worry about typing the right way.
To me, fast typing is like magic. I realised I never actively think and just magically type but as soon as I try to think of the position of each character my brain fails. What is this sorceryyyy??? (muscle memory i know but wtff)
like wtf dude how it is possible to write 14-30 words per minute ? I cannot manage to be that slow
Day 3 I am already surprised how much I have improved
A week isn't long enough .
How I learned how to give up in 4 minutes.
40 to 47 is a 17+% increase.
i was watching it for motivation 🤣
I learned how to touch type, I taught myself and I type about 100 wpm
I like this video because of your beautiful animals 😍😍
Next video: how to dring water by nose.
My best is 21 words
I got it 40 wpm When I did it for the first time.😢
Thanks!
I like your video!
But can you make a video to see how long it takes,
to typing in this way:
typinglikethismakesitgofaster,
without using space?
I'm subscribed your channel. :-)
Really Helpful
you just saved my life
I have to look at and check each keystroke on the screen.
Your friend looked happy with your fast two fingers, stick with what works.
😅 I couldn't leave that one alone 😂
Amazing video and edit quality

keep at it, 7 days is impossible to get anywhere near 50wpm, I'm still practicing for almost 2 months straight now, about 1 hour per day, and I have managed to hit the 73 wpm, mark, there is so much more to than just posture, the keyboard. No one tells you this but focus on your rhythm, determine how far you want to place your fingers from the keyboard. Determine if resting your fingers lightly over they keys works better than hovering your fingers over them. Determine if spreading your fingers wide works better than keeping them close. Also the curl of your fingers, the angle of which they arch over the keys. Once you have found the best method for your fingers, and get into a a certain rhythm, you can slowly get to 50wpm or above. Again no one tells you these things, it really makes a difference. Everyone has different ways of making it feel natural, work out these little things and you will be on your way. I'm chasing the 100wpm, but it sure as hell takes time, its not easy.
after 3 days i managed to get 80 so i guess it is per person
@@Skibidi-m2z3bare u joking dude 😂😂😂😂😂
I don't even practice and I get 100-150 on monkey type and 80-110 with punctuation on
I cant type 70wpm not lookin with two fingers, is it worth it?
@@unwelcomemotivation if you can type 70 not looking then it isnt worth it thats really good !
