Posted January 2, 2015 You just need to get used to your keyboard... Keep typing and your speed should improve... The 'F' and 'J' keys have a unique texture on them which would help you feel for the layout of your keyboard...

Posted January 2, 2015 Just practice. Find a guid on how to touch type, then learn. What do they know of England, who only England know?

Posted January 2, 2015 i feel like a special kid trying to type with me two index finger and stuffing every 4th word up It's really practice and just more practice Most keyboards have a thingy on the f and j key so you can use that to start with.

Posted January 2, 2015 there are free programs that can teach you to type properly, but you will be much MUCH slower in the beginning. It will also be frustrating.

Posted January 2, 2015 i feel like a special kid trying to type with me two index finger and stuffing every 4th word up honestly just practice, you will get better. place both your hands so your index fingers line up with F and J. when your hands are like this you can hit most keys with little hand movement and just practice, eventually you will remember where the keys are without having to look at the keyboard. but again like anything just practice.
