Touch Typing Lesson: Practicing T and Y with Space and Home Row

Mastering T and Y in touch typing is an important step in your typing journey. Both keys are typed using your index fingers:

• Your left index finger presses T (just above F).
• Your right index finger presses Y (just above J).

Keep all other fingers on the home row keys (A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, ;) and use your preferred thumb for the spacebar. This lesson combines upper-row and home-row keys to improve coordination and accuracy.

Practice Exercises for T and Y

To strengthen your muscle memory, practice typing simple patterns and words:

• Sequences: ty ty ty ty
• Words: yks, yak, has, gas

Always return to the home row position after each keystroke to build consistency.

Tips for Accuracy

• Slow down if you notice errors to ensure proper finger placement.
• Focus on accuracy first, then increase your typing speed gradually.
• Use TouchTyping.online’s interactive exercises for real-time feedback.

Navigation buttons are available below each lesson, and a progress bar at the top helps you track improvement. Mark this lesson complete when you’re ready to move on.
