USER REVIEWS

Good Book
~ Written on Jul 19, 2007. 1 out of 2 users found this review helpful.

This book explains how to correct handwritng difficulties. There are many examples which makes understanding much easier. It's not entertaining and needs some commitment but I'm seeing improvement.

A good grounding

Hi All
I bought this book about 3 weeks ago and have seen a marked improvement in my handwriting. Its a little ponderous in its approach but it ticks all the boxes if you want to identify what makes your handwriting illegible and how to improve with practice. The exercises are pretty boring and repettitive but do them and you will find results in a few weeks can be achieved. The writing style put forward is rather like cursive italic (Getty and Dubay).

In my teens I trained as a draftsman and each morning I was obliged to spend 30 minutes (for a few months) retraining my cursive hand into printed lettering for architectural drawings. As a result I lost the ability to write cursive and my hand writing 20 years later was very scruffy and printed. My daughter started learning cursive at school so I wanted to re-learn and this has been a journey of discovery!

I like my emerging new handwriting and recommend this book to you!

I like it.

I really felt that this book improved my handwriting. I am more confident in my handwriting, and I am also more willing to write things down in cursive. I really apperciate this book and recommend it to others.

Help for the handwriting impaired

I'm 51 years old and have struggled with very poor handwriting since grade school. I've always been frustrated by pain in the back of my hand when writing. The hints in this book, including a new way to hold the pen - and some different ways to think about composing cursive, have totally changed my handwriting. I'm no longer ashamed to write cursive notes.
