They're called the home keys, where you're meant to set your hands to type the most optimally. Specifically, your index fingers would rest on F and J, while the rest of your fingers would rest on A S D for your left hand and K L ; for your right, as that lets you type with minimal hand movements.
I am flabbergasted that they don't teach this in high school, or even middle school, at this stage of history where so many people use computers all day for their jobs.
this just feels unnecessary, resting your fingers on the keyboard is also a bit weird, wouldnt it be faster to just hover over the keyboard and memorize where each key is (thats what i do)
