Hand position when typing

When typing, do your hands always touch the keyboard or does it float?

Hi Mercedes,

It depends whether your hands need to take some rest. You don’t have to be so strict with it. Just follow where you are comfortable.

Hi Mercedes,

Your fingers should always come back to home row after every keystroke. That said, the lighter you rest your fingers on the keys, the quicker you can move them when needed. It is also helpful to lightly touch the keys so that you can feel the notch on the F and J keys to guide you.
