Locate the Q and Z keys.
Strike the Q with the little finger. The Z is reached with
the index finger The Q and Z may seem difficult at first. They will seem to
be a far reach. You may feel that you are going to lose your home keys. Thinking
of the Z as just left of the A may help. The Q is just past the B. You may look at first.
Many teachers don't want you to look at the keys. Do it. You will not be able
to type fast if you continue to look. It may help you to get started. These lessons
are more difficult than real text. In real text you will not have Q and Z togeather.

TIPS---- It is OK to look at the keys at first. Typing teachers of the old school
may disagree. You will stop looking as speed picks up. You may want to feel
your way across the A to the Z at first. That is OK. The Q is the same reach as
the ; is for the right-handed typist. I still have Velcro on my ; even though I don't
think I need it. Don't forget that you may put Velcro on the outer keys to mark them.
The Q and U combo will be a very common occurance in real text. It will become
easy. I am astounded that I seldom miss the qu combo. Your fingers will float freely
above the keyboard and you will return to the home keys with ease and you will
wonder why you ever worried about losing the home keys. You have my word on it!
