When Teacher Jennifer attended elementary school in the 1970s, neat, legible, cursive handwriting was an important part of her education. She received good grades then and compliments throughout her life on her beautiful penmanship. In recent years, she has dabbled in hand lettering and calligraphy art and has participated in events such as The Graceful Envelope Contest. She is a member of IAMPETH (International Association of Master Penmen, Engrossers and Teachers of Handwriting), participates regularly in workshops, and attended their annual conference, IAMPETHvirtual '21. She has taught print handwriting, cursive handwriting, and fine motor skills practice for more than five years, as well as other art, graphic design, and hand lettering courses. Your student will find her to be patient, cheerful, and fun.
