Find your typing tutor in Zillmere

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.
• No looking at the keyboard: Looking away from the keyboard forces your fingers to develop the muscle memory that leads to real speed.
• Each finger has its own keys: Assigning each finger to its designated keys means your hands always know where to go without conscious thought.
• Accuracy before speed: Speed comes naturally once accuracy is solid. Rushing too early builds bad habits that are hard to unlearn.
• Upright posture and wrist position: Good posture — back straight, elbows at roughly 90 degrees, wrists floating above the keyboard — protects against repetitive strain.

With these foundations in place, more advanced speed and accuracy become much easier to develop.

In Zillmere, expect to pay about $20/h for an hour of typing tuition.

The cost depends on a number of things:

• Your current level (complete beginner, intermediate, or returning to improve accuracy)
• The teacher's expertise and professional background
• The number of hours booked in advance
• The lesson format (online, at your home, or at the tutor's)

Comparing several profiles helps you find the best value for your needs.

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.
• Practise little and often: Aim for short daily sessions — your fingers and brain absorb the patterns best through regular repetition rather than marathon practice.
• Break the habit of looking: Deliberately training yourself not to look at your hands is uncomfortable at first, but it is the most important habit to build.
• Track your progress with typing 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.

With regular practice, most learners reach a comfortable typing speed within two to three months.
