You shouldn't need tutor software, Fosbe. It's actually a lot easier if you save yourself the confusion, and just try until you get it. It's actually easier than normal typing, because you can see what you're entering on the screen, rather than having to slowly tap at buttons and look at the keyboard concurrently - which means you have to constantly look up to see if you've made a mistake.

You'll probably find that you already can touch-type to a degree, and were just unaware of the fact.

That should be, "Without looking at the keyboard, or at the screen if I'm doing something else"

Touch Typing is easily easy.

Just about a year ago I could type at 25 words per minute, and now I'm at 75, without looking at the screen. Yes, I make mistakes, but doesn't everyone?!

Hooray!

:-D

typing all of this without my eyes open, whch means they are shut and now I am looking aroun the room and dont think i have made any mistakes, its all good if you make sure your fingers are in the correct place, easiest way to do this is to touch the space bar with your thumbs, still going...

Yay! :)

I thought that everyone has to touch the keys to type...

Unless they are lucky and get their pet monkey to type for them.
