In my experience, handwriting doesn’t reflect personality in general. Instead, it’s an ever-changing representation of your mood, the non-written message you want to communicate, and aesthetic preference! Today, we’ll examine six ways to improve your cursive handwriting to make it neater (maybe just for today, maybe indefinitely — up to you). I’ll also introduce you…
For years, I puzzled over whether a person’s cursive handwriting really could improve: after all, isn’t handwriting supposed to reflect personality? As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed that people’s handwriting changes depending on their mood and the day, and I’m no exception. With that in mind, I believe it’s absolutely possible to improve or change your handwriting, and today, we’ll focus on cursive handwriting in particular. First, we’ll talk about six ways to improve your cursive handwriting, and then I’ll tell you about TPK’s new Elegant Cursive Handwriting Worksheet.
It’s telling that the word “cursive” derives from the Latin “currere”, which means “to run/to hasten”. For most people, writing in cursive is quicker than writing in print. In fact, if you overthink your cursive and write too slowly, it can end up looking a bit choppy. For that reason, it’s important to experiment and find your own “Goldilocks speed”. The majority of writers will achieve more aesthetically pleasing cursive by writing at a fairly quick pace. That’s certainly been my experience!
