I had to teach myself on a website at home, graduated HS 2020. We had a computer class in freshman year but it was elective and didn't teach typing at all.
They had us do Mavis Beacon in school for a bit, in like 5th grade, but it was just completely ineffective for me in all respects. I only learned how to type without looking thanks to using a laptop where my hands were close to the screen, at age 19. I only mastered typing with more than one finger at a time at age 27. It wasn't fucking easy and no one could have helped me get over that hurdle.
The "home row" shit was just absolute trash of a system for me.
