[b]Handwriting tutor suitable for dyspraxic adult[/b]

Post by skh42 »

Hello. Anyone know of any kind of tutor list. I live in South London.

Handwriting improvement books just don't seem to work for me.

If anything has drastically improved your handwriting then do let me know.


Bestest,

Steve

hi steve,

i haven't heard of a handwriting tutor. i dont really do much handwriting myself (mostly type).

Occupational therapists are meant to be good at helping problems with writing... maybe you can get them to advise you?

I tend to agree with the previous reply,

even though my handwriting is easily readable, and joined, then to get the speed in writing, I ended up writing in capitals in school and college!

apart from that then I have opted for the pc for writing every time, as I am about 15 times faster with the pc than normal joined up writing.

but when I was in school the condition was barely known, and it was still the days of the bbc computers in school, and my parents bought a 286 IBM to help with school work (whenever we could kick our father off it!!)

then I used to write to a friend using the pc, and snail mail!
