The way I learned it a long time ago is to use some tutoring-program
which taught it in the form of a game. I used that for a couple of hours
until I completed the "basic" stuff. It was far more entertaining then
the dull tutorial-programs for touch-typing, I could never complete.
Then I started to type long texts, I wanted to type anyways and put a
towel over my hands for a couple of them. After that I removed the
towel and since then I am touch-typing and never looked back.
