notice which finger should type the letter key you need;

when you come to tricky words type them more times;

To type Capital letters you will need to use the Shift keys, above the Ctrl keys on each side of the letter key block. Left of Z and Right of ?

The Shift keys are used also for Upper Characters like @ $ % * <

For a Left Hand capital hold the RIGHT Shift key - type the letter, then lift the Shift key. For a Right Hand capital hold the LEFT Shift key.

Try these sentences

The full stop is on the bottom row; use the ring finger.

The comma is to the left of the full stop; use your longest finger.

To start a new line, press the ENTER key once.

Hold the Right Shift key for these left hand capitals.

Try to keep your fingers curved.

Do not let your wrists rest on the desk. That wastes energy.

The trees were very, very wet. We will get wet when we go outside.

Do not type for too long without stretching your shoulders, neck, wrists, fingers.

Hold the Left Shift key for these right hand capitals

Keep your legs uncrossed. Keep your feet on the floor.

It helps if you remember which finger types which key.
