Already at secondary school & wanting to make sustainable changes to handwriting?

You have a desire to help your child but you also know that staying being the 'parent' is essential. You don't want a DIY option but believe a mixture of doing a course with other students who also find writing tricky or doing a stand-alone course with a drop-in clinic option would work well for your tween or teen.

Suitable for 11 to 16 years.

Hi there!

I'm so glad that you are here. I really hope it gives you the answers you are looking for when you are wanting to improve your child's handwriting.

I work with hundreds of people who are struggling to write and I’ve helped them successfully transition into having readable handwriting that they are proud of. I know right now you are probably feeling a little helpless, stuck and lost. You may even be spending the majority of your day worrying that your child is going to hate handwriting for the rest of their life and how this might affect their school grades and career choices. Trust me, when I say it doesn’t have to be the case.

I believe that when we make learning fun and when it is broken down into bite-sized achievable steps, it is easy to do.

Have a look around the website and ask any questions, myself and the team are here to help you. 

Best wishes,

Sheilagh

Sheilagh was a Godsend for my son. Patient, delightful and efficient. She gave my son valuable tips that I hope he will take through his academic life. I wish I would have found her years ago because my son's handwriting improved significantly.

Loved everything – I had no idea I knew so little it all completely made sense and I’m excited to take it all back.

My daughter went from zero to hero in a matter of weeks, she is now writing very confidently as well as excelling in her work at school. I highly recommend this course its worth every penny Thank you so much Sheilagh P.S. She misses the Skype calls she has with yourself.

Sheilagh’s Skype lessons proved to be a remarkably effective way of breaking down the ‘handwriting problem’ into manageable parts and working through each part directly with my son.
