The middle row of keys is called the ''home row'' $name. Here are the keys in this row:
ASDFGHJKL;'
Place your first finger on the your left hand on the F key and the first finger on your right hand on the J key. This is called the ''home row hand position''!
If you're confused you can [[review the hand position here]] $name!
Otherwise... [[Let's learn the home row!]]
Try tyoing "dad" $name!
[[Ok!]]
{
(if: $result is 'dad')[Correct! Let's try typing [["sad"]] $name!
]
(else:)[Try dad again $name!]
}
{
(if: $result is 'sad')[Correct! Let's trying typing [["lad"]] $name!
]
(else:)[Try sad again $name!]
}
(put: (prompt: "lad") into $lad)
{
(if: $lad is 'lad')[Correct! You're really getting the hang of this $name! [[Let's try something harder]] $name!
]
(else:)[Try lad again $name!]
}
(put: (prompt: "What's your name?") into $name)
Pleased to meet you $name! Welcome to Easy Touch Typing. [[Let's learn to type!]]

The ''upper row'' is just above the ''home row'' $name! It contains the following keys:
QWERTYUIOP
If you combine those keys with the keys in the ''home row'' you can spell most of the words in the English language because you have all the vowells!
Let's try [[typing some simple words]] with the upper row $name!
If you'd like to review which finger strikes which key in the upper row, [[click here]] $name!
(put: (prompt: "tut") into $tut)
{
(if: $tut is 'tut')[Correct $name! You're a natural! Try [["yet"]]
]
(else:)[Try that again $name! I know you can do it! Go back to [[typing some simple words]]]
}
(put: (prompt: "sad dad had lads") into $sad_dad_had_lads)
{
(if: $sad_dad_had_lads is 'sad dad had lads')[Correct! Let's trying typing [["with the upper row"]] $name!
]
(else:)[Try that again $name! I know you can do it!]
}

All set $name?
[[Let's learn the home row!]]
<img src="http://theliamgallagher.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/handposition.png">
Does that help $name? Now that you've got the basics of the upper row together let's try [[typing some simple words]]!
(put: (prompt: "Just up on the right there by 'P'") into $itch1)
Just a [[little lower...]]
(put: (prompt: "Just a little lower") into $itch2)
That hits the spot! Let's try [[several in a row now ->you can do it]] now $name!
(put: (prompt: "head said feed dead deed read greed freed") into $head)
{
(if: $head is 'head said feed dead deed read greed freed')[That's the trick $name! Now there's only one more row to go. Let's learn the [[bottom row]].
]
(else:)[Try that again $name! I know [[you can do it]]!]
}
(put: (prompt: "yet") into $yet)
{
(if: $yet is 'yet')[Correct $name! My right side is [["itchy"]].
]
(else:)[Try that again $name! I know you can do it, you'll get it [["yet"]]!]
}
The ''bottom row'' is just *below* the ''home row'' $name! It contains the following keys:
ZXCVBNM
Once you get this row down there's nothing stopping you from typinging anything you could dream of $name!
Let's try [[combining all three rows]] now.
If you'd like to review which finger strikes which key in the ''bottom row'', [[you can do so now]], other wise let's press on to [[combining all three rows]]!
(put: (prompt: "How can you tell if you're dreaming?") into $dreaming)
{
(if: $dreaming is 'How can you tell if you are dreaming?')[Fine... We'll work on typing with out [[a little more practice]] then.
]
(else:)[$dreaming... [[I wish I knew]].]
}

{

]
(else:)[Hmmm.,., [[How can I tell if I'm remembering or if this is happening for the first time?]] $dreaming
]
}
