Well there are two ways to kern, and neither of them are what you have up top, Marcelom. The first way is to do it from within a text box, using the tracking and kerning tools in your type window. The second way is to convert the letters to outlines and nudge them around with the horizontal arrow keys. Under preferences, you can tweak your moves to be small or large.
Also, looking at it upside down, at a distance, and squinting helps – all exercises to help you see the spaces in and around letters better.
Always, always always print it out. Don't trust what you see on screen, the backlit glare messes with everything.
