What each drill trains
| Drill | Focus |
|---|---|
| Home row | Fingers rest on A S D F and J K L ; |
| Top row | Reach up from the home row and come back |
| Bottom row | Curl down, keep your wrists still |
| Left hand | Only the left hand types |
| Right hand | Only the right hand types |
| Common words | The most frequent words in everyday English prose |
| Long words | Seven letters and up, for rhythm on longer words |
| Punctuation | Commas, full stops, question marks and quotes |
| Number row | Digits on the top row, no numpad |
A simple practice plan
- Warm up (2 min): home row drill, slowly, eyes on the screen.
- Weak keys (5 min): generate a paragraph around the letters your results flag.
- Real text (5 min): a paragraph test with capitals and punctuation.
- Measure (1 min): one 1 minute test, logged in your history.

Frequently asked questions
How long should I practise typing each day?
Short, focused sessions work best: 10 to 20 minutes a day beats an hour once a week. Stop when your accuracy starts dropping.
Which drill should I start with?
If you still look at the keys, start with the home row drill, then top row and bottom row. If you already touch type, use common words and punctuation, and generate text around your weak keys.
How does the AI practice text work?
You choose a topic, a level and optionally some letters to focus on. An AI model writes a new 70 to 90 word paragraph for you to type. Only those three settings are sent; nothing else about you.
