Type high-frequency words and everyday phrases smoothly. Keep a steady rhythm, use a light touch, and aim for 95%+ accuracy before pushing speed.

Technique Checklist

  • Eyes on screen; return to F/J between words
  • Use whole-word rhythm for common phrases (“thank you”, “let me know”)
  • Don’t chase speed mid-line; keep accuracy steady
  • If accuracy dips below 92%, slow down and reset posture
