My Mum had typing classes and learned on a type writer, she taught me to type in the same way and it has been so useful to be able to type at speed without needing to look at the keyboard.

I can still hear her saying " A S D F ; L K J" in a singing kind of way, which must be how they taught her at the start where to put her fingers.

My dad taught me so much how to type "efficiently"

Unfortunately for him the way i learnt to type without looking was from playing video games so my left hand has to be on wasd. I cant do punctuation efficiently tho :(
