Find your typing tutor in Adelaide

Touch typing rests on foundational habits that unlock speed and accuracy.

• Home row position: Your fingers always return to the home row keys — ASDF for the left hand and JKL; for the right. This anchor point is the foundation of every keystroke.
• Eyes off the keyboard: Looking away from the keyboard forces your fingers to develop the muscle memory that leads to real speed.
• Correct finger assignment: Assigning each finger to its designated keys means your hands always know where to go without conscious thought.
• Focus on accuracy first: Speed comes naturally once accuracy is solid. Rushing too early builds bad habits that are hard to unlearn.
• Upright posture and wrist position: Sitting straight with relaxed wrists and forearms parallel to the desk prevents fatigue and supports long typing sessions.

Once these basics are solid, progress accelerates noticeably.

In Adelaide, expect to pay about $47/h for an hour of typing tuition.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Your current level (complete beginner, intermediate, or returning to improve accuracy)
• The instructor's credentials and track record with students
• The number of hours booked in advance
• Where the sessions take place and how they are structured

Many tutors offer package discounts for booking multiple lessons upfront.

Here is how to approach learning touch typing independently for the best results.

• Start with the home row: Learn ASDF and JKL; before anything else. Once your fingers are comfortable there, gradually add new keys one row at a time.
• Short, frequent sessions: Aim for short daily sessions — your fingers and brain absorb the patterns best through regular repetition rather than marathon practice.
• Resist the urge to look down: Deliberately training yourself not to look at your hands is uncomfortable at first, but it is the most important habit to build.
• Use speed and accuracy tests: Regular typing tests show you where you are improving and where extra work is needed. Aim to lift your words-per-minute score steadily over time.

Following this method consistently leads to rapid, noticeable improvement over just a few weeks.
