How to Practice
We recommend to do the following practice.
- 1st row: Carefully imitate the shape of sample letters.
- 2nd row: Write letters by occasionally looking the sample.
- 3rd row: Write a letter without looking, then compare with the sample. Repeat the same.
Refer grid lines to check the position of each stroke.
This one-time practice would be enough to get familiar with the shape of letters.
Repeat the practice to become a master of beautiful handwriting!
