Being able to touch type is the ability of typing without looking at the keyboard. By touch-typing, the individual uses all fingers instead of just a few fingers. Consequently, typing speed increases dramatically.

It is not only transcriptionists and secretaries that benefit from being able to type without looking at the keyboard. By concentrating on their thoughts and creative processes rather than the keyboard, all users will focus more on the content of the text, thereby increasing its quality.
