Sessions are 1-3 students and are 45 minutes long, once a week. Light practice homework (5-10 minutes/day) will be assigned each week. The curriculum being used is Learning Without TearsTM, a developmentally based, multi-sensory program. See more information at (concealed information)
I have worked as an Occupational Therapist with older adults for 18 years. Seeking a change, I turned to handwriting. There is a growing need for young people to develop stronger handwriting skills, as they do not get enough practice in school. Handwriting helps the learning process by stimulating brain function, and helping with retaining facts. Legible handwriting can also help boost a student's confidence and academic performance. When a student isn't worried about HOW to write, they can focus on WHAT to write.
I have a background in Occupational Therapy. I am also certified as a Learning Without Tears ™ Specialist.

The first step is an evaluation. The student's school worksheets, math papers, and journals are reviewed. The student is also given a formal assessment. After the assessment is scored, a plan and goals are created by the instructor and sent to the parent(s). Parents that wish to continue with lessons will be given the option of signing up for single sessions, or packages of 5 or 10. Sessions are held in West Chester or Blue Ash, Ohio and last 45 minutes. Sessions can be with 1-3 students, grouped with similar needs. An informal assessment will be done at 5 sessions, and the more formal assessment will be repeated at 10 sessions.
My clients have ranged from preschool through 7th grade.
Better handwriting habits don't happen overnight. It does take practice. My goal is to make those lessons a bit more fun and take away some of the stress of writing.
For children who are older, such as middle schoolers, I recommend really giving good focus to the lessons. After years of building "bad" habits in handwriting, it takes time to change. Be patient with yourself.
A recent student started showing improvement in only a few sessions. He seemed more confident and seemed proud of his success.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
How willing are you to put in the work to improve your handwriting?
Are you able to consistently make it to the weekly session?
What areas are you struggling with the most: hand fatigue/improper pencil grip, word spacing, letter formation, keeping your letters straight?
