How this lesson behaves on Colemak-DH

On Colemak-DH, this lesson moves across the top letter row and home row, which makes it a coordination drill as much as a pure key-memory drill.

This lesson touches top letter row and home row on Colemak-DH, so it is useful for building both key familiarity and cleaner transitions.

Open typing test and customized training

Why SureTyping helps here

  • Live lessons save stars and progress separately for each keyboard layout.
  • Typing tests report WPM and accuracy, so you can tell whether speed or control is holding you back.
  • Customized training gives you a direct next step after a weak lesson result instead of ending the practice loop.
