Capital Letters are typed using both hands, one for the Shift key and the other for the letter key. You need to press the Shift key at the same time as the letter you want to capitalize.
The shift Keys are always pressed with your little fingers.

You will learn the key positions faster if you don't peek a the keyboard when training. If you can't remember where a key is located, check the keyboard picture on the seen to find it.
Keep your wrists up and straight when typing Resting your wrists on the wrist rest or the desk will create an uncomfortable angle making it more difficult to move your fingers. This cause errors and slows you down. Holding your wrists too high has the same effect increasing the tension in the shoulders.
We believe that good accuracy is the building block of fluent typing. This is why you'll have an accuracy target throughout the course. Your speed will develop over time as you continue to train and start using your typing skills on a daily basis.
Sit up straight, elbows close to the body. Try to keep shoulders, arms and hands relaxed to avoid tension and discomfort.
We hope you enjoy learning to type with The Typing World.
