Practicing 3 and 8 with Letters

Master the middle finger number keys 3 and 8 to expand your touch typing skills. Use your left middle finger for 3 (above D) and your right middle finger for 8 (above K), keeping other fingers on the home row (A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, ;). Press the spacebar with your preferred thumb. This lesson integrates 3, 8 with 4, 5, 6, 7, and home row keys.

Practice sequences like ‘38 38 38 38’ and words like ‘sad,’ ‘fig,’ ‘has,’ and ‘jag’ with a focus on accuracy. Return to the home row after each keystroke to reinforce muscle memory. TouchTyping.online’s platform provides real-time feedback, with navigation buttons below and a progress bar above. Mark this lesson complete when confident.

If you struggle, slow down and focus on proper finger placement for 3 and 8. Regular practice will make these number keys feel natural, enhancing your typing efficiency.
