Next, the Touch Typing Tutor master selection list appears. This selection list offers you three options, as shown below.

Before beginning any session with the Touch Typing Tutor module, make sure that the '''ALPHA LOCK''' is in the up (off) position.
===For The Beginner===
If you are learning to touch-type for the first time, begin with the LESSONS option. With the Touch Typing Tutor selection list displayed, press 1 for LESSONS. See the explanation beginning on page 10 covering the lessons; then work through Lesson 1-A, which introduces the "home" keys - the keys over which your fingers should be positioned while you are typing.
If the message "More practice is needed" appears when you have
completed Lesson 1-A, press REDO and repeat the lesson once. When
you complete Lesson 1-A successfully, you are ready to learn the
"reach" keys - those which are not in the home position. Press
PROC'D to continue to Lesson 1-B.
When you complete Lesson 1-B, Review 1 begins. In this section, you
type words that use the letters covered in Lessons 1-A and 1-B.
When you successfully complete Review 1, you might enjoy trying
Level 1 of the Game. Press BEGIN to return to the Touch Typing
Tutor selection list, and then press 3 for the GAME. Read the
instructions; then select Level 1 and get ready to type! (See the
explanation for the Game on page 20.)
