How to Learn Touch Typing with TypeStep
The method is based on how often letters appear in real words — the more common a letter is, the sooner you start typing it. You type real words from lesson one — no more FJFJ drills that are boring and don't teach you to type.
How the Touch Typing Training Works
Frequency-Based Letter Order
Each language has its own letter order based on how often letters appear in real words. You practice the most common letters first, so you build speed where it matters most.
Speed-Based Letter Unlocking
Every lesson has a target letter — the one you're currently training. The next letter unlocks only when your typing speed gets close to your goal. Progress is measured across several lessons, not just one.
4 Stages of Touch Typing Training
Learning is split into stages: lowercase letters first, then uppercase, then numbers, and finally punctuation. You complete each stage before moving to the next. This keeps you focused and builds the skill gradually.
Per-Letter Speed Statistics
Speed and accuracy are tracked for every single letter. You can see which letters you've mastered and which are slowing you down. The trainer focuses exercises on your weak spots — no need to retype what you already know.
On-Screen Keyboard and Finger Guide
An on-screen keyboard and hand guide highlight which finger to use and where the key is. Use your peripheral vision to follow the correct finger, and remember to return it to the home row if the next key isn't in the same zone.
