Typing on the Keyboard

When you are going to college to become a Medical Administrative Assistant one of the courses you have to take is keyboarding.  In this course you learn the correct way to place your fingers and the fastest way to type.  When you get a job in this field, typing on the keyboard is very important.  You are going to be at the computer desk all day long putting in information.  So I am going to teach you the correct and fastest way to type.  

When you are sitting at the desk make sure you are not too high or too low in your chair.  Sit in the upright position and put both feet flat on the floor.  Then place your fingers on the home row keys on the keyboard.  Start with your left hand. Put your first finger on F, second finger on D, third finger on S, Fourth finger on A.  Then place your right hand on the keyboard.  Put your first finger on J, second on K, third on L and forth on ;.  When you are typing try not to look at the keys.  This is difficult but will help you improve typing.  Some ways that can help you improve typing is online chat rooms, emailing, creating web pages, and online typing games.  Here are some links for online typing games that can help you with your typing.  http://www.crazymonkeygames.com/QWERTY-Warriors.html and http://www.typingtest.com/
