Typing was taught to boomers and genx first dude. In fact, as a liminal i'd readily say i've had an arseload more typing "teaching" than you have - both keyboard and typewriter- and i'll wager my mother in the age of typewriters had even more.

I took typing class in high school. On a typewriter. Gen X. My mom was a trained stenographer in her younger years.

X here as well. But 78. So i got to take advantage of the digital age without having my teen stupidity immortalised on it. Truly the sweetest of spots.

I am a bit older but similar. My dad was an early adopter of computers even though he had zero idea how to use one.
