Description

Does your teen need to improve messy handwriting that’s hiding their brilliant ideas?

Transform Messy Handwriting gives 11-16 year olds the 1:1 support they need to write legibly and fast enough to keep up in class and exams.

What’s Included:

  • Individual online lessons (choose a taster, block of 6, refresher, or revise-and-write session)
  • Personalised instruction using occupational therapy techniques
  • Focus on opinion writing, persuasive writing, and KS3/GCSE exam topics
  • Targeted work on clarity AND speed (because both matter)

What will your child get:

  • Handwriting that’s actually easy to read
  • Faster output without sacrificing legibility
  • Confidence that their answers will get marked, not misread

Perfect For…

  • Year 7–11 students who want to improve messy handwriting before exams
  • Teens who avoid writing because it’s slow or illegible
  • Parents who want expert 1:1 support, not another worksheet

Why It Works

These aren’t generic handwriting lessons. I use occupational therapy techniques tailored to older students who are writing essays and exam answers, not practicing the alphabet. We work on real writing tasks so improvement shows up where it counts.

Help your child’s ideas shine through. Book a taster lesson or block of 6 now.

About Sheilagh (OT)

DescriptionHi, I’m Sheilagh,

Here’s a little bit about me:

  • Handwriting expert and occupational therapist
  • Founder of Help with Handwriting
  • Author of 2 published books on handwriting
  • Handwriting advisor to Penguin Random Books and Peppa Pig.
  • Trains teachers and other occupational therapists on handwriting.

“I keep handwriting fun and age appropriate. I think that’s my superpower. I help students have lightbulb moments about their writing. Helping them to believe they can improve. I often leave parents and teachers wondering how such a change is possible.”
