Traversing text in Insert mode

While in Insert Mode in Vim, is there any way to traverse the text moving some characters forward and backward other than using the arrow keys?

If I press h, j, k and l while in Insert mode, the actual characters are printed on screen instead of moving through the text.

The way I’m doing it at the moment is having to resort to Ctrl + [ (Esc) and traversing the text then; but obviously that is not productive.
