How to Learn to Type Without Looking at the Keyboard

In order to learn how to type without looking at the keyboard, what's the best way to do it? The keyboard does not need to be looked at when you start typing. You might think it's crazy, don't you? That's not the case. It might seem impossible at first, but you can become a professional with practice and time. For easier typing practice, see the mechanical vs. normal keyboard differences.

Some people can master typing within a few days. Quite simply, the explanation is quite straightforward. In every moment of your life, your mind receives tons of information from your surroundings without your awareness when learning how to type without looking at the keyboard.

In fact, it uses it extensively without knowing it when you learn how to type without looking at the keyboard. If you've ever typed for even five minutes, you already know where the keys are. In addition, muscle memory comes into play afterward. Some people falter and may take a bit longer than others to get over it. No pressure here! Your mind just isn't trusted yet. The rest will take care of itself.

It All Beings with Actually Getting Started

Fingers should be placed on the keyboard. In order to improve your typing without looking at keyboard skills, place your index fingers on the "f" and "j" keys. Under your fingertips, do you feel any bumps? It is here where you should rest your index fingers when you are not typing.

You should feel natural throughout the rest of your palm as you type without looking for practice. The other fingers aren't mine to tell you where to place. Each person's hand and keyboard size determine how big the keyboard should be. As long as the wrist rests on the keyboard pad or the Keyboard and Mouse Tray on the lower half, they should naturally hover above the keyboard while you learn how to type without looking.

You will inevitably make mistakes in the beginning when learning how to type without looking. Maybe quite a bit. There's no point in worrying about it. Rather than resolving every single mistake, what matters is not stopping. Rather than how many mistakes you make, it is how much frustration you can tolerate when you see them. In order to overcome blocks, it helps to know this.

Write away as much as you can. Writing whatever you think is best, rather than copying from a book, is best. Regardless of how many mistakes you make, you aren't breaking anything: nothing but 'electric ink,' letters, and digits on a screen.

Do not look down at your keyboard or desk with a keyboard tray when training, and don't correct mistakes. When you need to correct a word, use the backspace key to delete it. Your performance will improve quickly; most of the time, within a few days. In a couple of days or so that we know people who tried it, they were able to write blindly.

Method to Type Without Looking at the Keyboard

Limit looking

You should not look at the keyboard as the first step in learning to type without looking at the keyboard! You may be tempted to look as you think it will speed up your typing, but try to keep your eyes on the screen. After a while, you will be typing much more quickly.

Position your hands

When you play the piano, you must learn the correct finger positions to hit the right keys every time. Please pause the video now if you need to get used to these positions. This picture shows you where each finger needs to be. You can place your index fingers without looking at the "F" and "J" keys because they have little bumps.

Learn patterns

It is best to type consistently, even if it is initially slow. It is important to hit keys steadily with the fingers. Keep the speed low to maintain reasonable accuracy while going faster. Learning the pattern 'the' is important as soon as possible. We would suggest adding '-tion' as well. Feel how that word feels in your hand. In addition to these common chunks, there are many others. It's also good to "chunk" your typing with those.

Practice typing

Since you do not need to look at the keyboard and know where your fingers go, practicing is simply a matter of practice. Here you will find a free typing practice system where you can enter words, measure your speed and accuracy, and find out how good you are at typing. The site will prompt you to begin typing once the bubble has loaded, so click it. You'll soon be able to type without looking at the keyboard if you regularly use this site to practice typing.
