Touch-typing gives you many benefits, including increased productivity.
Some important touch-typing benefits are listed below.
Increases employability and career options in computer and admin related jobs. You will qualify for more jobs than you currently do.
It has always been perceived that fast typers are more productive. Fast typing skills create a perception that you are a computer expert, it makes you feel good.
Chatting and posting faster keeps you on top. You can handle chatbots and social media much faster and more efficiently.
It is more efficient because the typist uses all of the fingers instead of just a
few fingers. As a result, typing speed will increase dramatically.
Increased Effectiveness.
It is more effective because the typist looks at the output on the screen,
not the keyboard.
It is less demanding on the brain because the brain does not need to cope with two issues, that of locating the keys and focusing on the output.
It is also less tiring because it distributes the total load over all fingers. Touch typing, because of its natural and flowing finger movements, results in less stress.
It reduces wear and tear on the few fingers that are constantly being used. The load is spread over many more fingers and thus the risk of Cumulative Trauma Disorder is reduced.
