EmmaNZ Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 If an adult (me!) wanted to learn how to write in cursive correctly, how would you recommend I went about doing that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Have you thought about italics? There are online materials that would allow you to copy the script, and you just need a cheap italic pen felt-tip pen. With the pen, it starts to look elegant very quickly.

Candid Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 This book is geared to adults: http://www.amazon.com/Teach-Yourself-Better-Handwriting-New/dp/0071636382/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1318248759&sr=8-6 They walk you through analyzing your handwriting and changing it to something better. Not just more readable but more adult as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamajudy Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 The Getty/Dubay Italic Writing Book G is for grade 6 and up. It is quite appropriate for adults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Bay Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Zaner-Bloser has an all in one handwriting book that would work well for adults, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I've only had a quick look at the Spencerian packet, but that looks good. Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest k8tbug Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Have you heard of Callirobics? I used it with my children for a while and also with a friend who suffered a stroke. It was very helpful to her in getting her handwriting back and it really helped improve the kids' handwriting, although I used it when they were quite young.
