Lesson Guide

Level 8 · G & H
Tips
01

G is typed by your left index stretching right (from F). H by your right index stretching left (from J).

02

G and H are the most common inner index moves. In everyday typing, words like "the", "that", "right" use them constantly.

03

Keep your wrists steady when stretching to G or H. Only the index finger moves — the hand stays over the home row.

04

G and H bridge both hands at the center. Mastering them eliminates the most common gap in touch typing accuracy.

05

Real words are now rich: right, light, fight, health, thought. You are close to full keyboard fluency.
