Find the movement before the speed.

Move one finger at a time from the home row to the top row, then bring it back. Aim for a comfortable reach rather than lifting your whole hand. Start slowly enough to find each key by touch. Add speed only when the movement feels familiar.

A small routine

  1. Settle your hands and find your home position.
  2. Type a short run at a pace where you can stay accurate.
  3. Review the keys you missed and repeat those movements.
  4. Take a short break before trying again.
