Practicing R and U with Space and Home Row

Advance your touch typing skills on TouchTyping.online by mastering the upper row keys R and U, both controlled by your index fingers. Use your left index finger for R (above F) and your right index finger for U (above J), 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 upper and home row keys to build fluency.

Focus on accuracy with sequences like ‘ru ru ru ru’ and words like ‘ruf,’ ‘rug,’ ‘sad,’ and ‘lad.’ Return your fingers to the home row after each keystroke to maintain proper positioning. TouchTyping.online’s interactive platform provides real-time feedback, with navigation buttons below and a progress bar above to track your progress. Mark this lesson complete when confident.

If you make mistakes, slow down and ensure your index fingers reach R and U correctly. Regular practice with these exercises will make R and U feel natural, enhancing your typing speed and coordination.
