Can you touch/blind type?

yes - took a night school class during high school. I'm not as fast or quite as accurate as I used to be but that's a lack of practice.

I can type without looking, as my mom made all of take typing in high school. I'm not fast, but I am accurate. Dh did not take typing, and uses two fingers on his right hand and one on his left. He is crazy fast and accurate. His job required a lot of typing and he found his way.

Yes, my mom made me take typing in 7th grade. I thought it was the most useless class ever! Boy was I wrong! I’m so glad I took the class because computers became a”thing” and knowing how to type has been so helpful.

I, along with everyone else in my school district, took typing in 10th grade.

Yes, I think we should still teach it

Well, just to date myself, I learned on a manual typewriter in high school in 1979.  It was an elective and I'm glad I took it. I have spent my entire working career having to type. 

Yes, I took typing in 9th grade. Back in the day I could type over 100wpm. Not a skill anyone asks for now! 😂

Learned in 8th grade. My DS had keyboarding in kindergarten.

Yup, 'Keyboarding' was a required class in Grade 9 at my high school.

Honestly it's the skill I used and still use the most that I acquired during those years. I hated the actual class because our teacher was draconian and acted like she'd sucked on a lemon all day, every day, but the skill stuck and I definitely do not regret it. I don't know what my current WPM is but it's decently high. I can type only a little slower than I can talk. We learned on ancient Pentium computers that only ran this ASCII program (no graphics) with a blue background and white text. There were wooden boxes that went over the keyboards so you couldn't look at your fingers. "Limp spiders! Why are your hands so stiff, I want to see limp spiders!" I still remember whatever-her-name was grumbling that at us regularly.

I taught myself to touch type on a manual typewriter with one of those Teach Yourself To . . books eons ago when my first employer said they wanted me to learn. I should have realised at the time that he just wanted a spare typist but, to be fair, it’s been a great skill to have and I have never once regretted it. I could type faster than all the girls in the typing pool too, so I must have done something right. I actually enjoy typing.

It been eons ago, but yes, in high school. I think I’ve mentioned it here before. I took it in high school on a manual typewriter. You had to have really strong wrists to throw that carriage fast, smooth and all the way to the end. The teacher was the golf coach and you could tell he hated having to teach typing. The typing room was in the center of the building with no windows. For our tests he would turn off the lights and read what we had to type - in total darkness. Try doing that - do a manual carriage return, and get your hands back on the typewriter in the proper position - in pitch black.

I was also pretty fast at using a 10 key adding machine, touch only. My first office job was in accounts payable, (dark ages - no computers). Those skills came in pretty handy.

Yes. I learned in high school back in the Days of the Dinosaur when it was called "typing" not "keyboarding". lol. In fact, we learned on a manual typewriter.  

It was the most useful class I took in high school, except perhaps for the English classes over the years that taught me to write well. When I was in college I earned a lot of money by typing papers for other kids who didn't know how to type. I remember one girl who said she refused to learn how to type because then she'd get typecast (no pun intended, haha) as "just a secretary" after college. I thought that was silly because she didn't have to tell anyone that she knew how to type, when she applied for jobs. But meanwhile she was paying me a fortune to type her papers. 

After college I worked for awhile in a department at the University of Pittsburgh that had a lot of international students. We administrative people were allowed to stay after hours and type papers for these students, using the university typewriters and paper. It was a great deal, and wow some of those wealthy Middle Eastern and Nigerian students paid us well! And by that time we were using the IBM Selectric kind of typewriters so that made everything even easier.

Yep, one of the best classes I took in high school. lol

I took typing in high school but never really mastered the art of typing without looking. In fact, I don’t even position my fingers in the way I was taught. But what I do works for me. I’m fairly fast and accurate - with a few edits for reversing letters in a word mainly.

Semi. When I had a larger keyboard, more similar to the ones that went with the electric typewriters I learned on, I could do a fair job of typing without peeking. But when I switched to a smaller keyboard, I lost the ability. I was always lining up incorrectly. Even partially looking I still mess up, LOL. When I look I just look at the center of the keyboard and the parts my hands are hiding I sometimes mess up and have to go fix.

My biggest issues, though, are that I seem to have lost the rhythm of proper typing. I tend to place my spaces wrong, especially with small words or transpose letters a LOT. When I'm doing something like Peaing, I don't even always go back and fix them. I just leave them be or I'd spend half my time here correcting those mistakes.
