Interested in a teenage handwriting programme to help your child improve their handwriting?
The 66 day teenage handwriting programme is here
The 66 day teenager handwriting programme is designed for young people aged 11 to 14 years. To do by themselves with the support from myself. All that is needed is WIFI to watch the videos and a printer to download the worksheets.
Autumn class of 2021 to start on 7th October
The concept is simple, research says it takes 66 days to change a habit. I will give you 66 days worth of handwriting activities to help transform your child’s writing.
This is for the young person who needs a refresher course on how to keep handwriting legible. Perhaps the demands of the school are making their hands hurt when writing? Teachers are struggling to read their work. Or they cannot write fast enough.
I will give them quick, easy strategies and techniques that REALLY work. I will be using my occupational therapy knowledge of handwriting development and research to help them improve the look and feel of your handwriting. We will cover what to do when your hand hurts, letter formation using all styles, how to write neatly*. Giving clear instructions, so that any mixed messages from the past can be banished. (*By ‘neatly’, I mean legible and fast enough).
My son had a bit of a light bulb moment yesterday. Before he never realised that all the letters had to be the same height apart from the tall letters. After writing his work I could see him look at it proudly and smile. I love seeing his face when he is proud of something. (Julie, Mum of Charlie, age 12)

Frequently Asked Questions
The content is accessible 2 days before and 2 weeks after allowing time to dip in and out if necessary. Alternatively 2 days of handwriting activities could be done in one go.
There will be no set time to do the classes or worksheets as the videos are stand alone pieces. The zoom calls will be on Thursdays 8.00 to 8.30pm. I know many teenagers do not want to be on a call. I am going to have a question box in the dashboard where they access the content. Here they can email me their question.
No. I’ve set the ages as a guide. He may find some of the activities a little young or easy to complete but the teaching will be very useful.
Yes of course. Email the support desk and I will raise an invoice for you.
I am sorry but I have decided to run this programme 4 times a year and make them closed groups. This is because we are not only helping to improve handwriting but also boost self esteem. When someone new joins it can be unsettling to a group.
The timings of the groups are:
- Summer class 2021 – 8th July to 11th Sept
- Autumn class 2021 – 7th oct to 19th Dec
- Winter/Spring class 2022 – 20th Jan to 26th March
- Spring/Summer class – 28th April to 2nd July
Starting 7th October until 11th December 2021.
Access to the content available from the 5th October until 24th December 2021.
Registration will be closed on 17th October and the spring class of 2022 will start 20th January 2022.
