Right-Hand Drills


The majority of misstrokes involve the right hand. The reason for this is simple. When you begin to stroke a word, almost invariably you begin
by forming the beginning of the stroke first. This is natural and normal, and it would be kind of silly to expect otherwise. That means that when
you stroke the word "word," you will think of those four letters and where they are on the keyboard, but the letter "w" is going to get just the
tiniest bit of attention more than the rest of the letters.
That tiny microsecond of extra time will always make the left hand appear stronger and more controlled.

Here is where you learn to correct that.

Remember

Right hand only
