筆記体：マンツーマンの個人指導レッスン

Private tutoring cursive sessions - Learning cursive is great for your brain!

This class takes an individualized approach to the group classes offered - focusing in depth on the specific needs your learner has - whether it be working on your learners name, a specific combination of letters, or a lesson that focuses on the fundamentals. After class, you will be sent two pdf files to print for tracing practice with any further guidance/instructions your learner needs - these worksheets will review/reinforce the letters/formation/words your learner worked on during the lesson, helping them retain the information and giving them another opportunity to practice. 

Research has shown that writing in cursive stimulates different parts of the brain than writing in print or typing. Writing in cursive also increases fine motor skills, as well as helps readers learn how to pronounce letter blends. 

Using the D'Nealian Handwriting method (where the letters are slanted slightly to the right as opposed to straight up and down), students will learn the fundamentals of writing lowercase letters in cursive. Learners will work on the joining strokes required to turn most manuscript letters into cursive. We will warm up with practicing these strokes before each letter. Through repetition and practicing the fundamentals, your learner will see progress in their cursive writing. Since most letters are made with one continuous stroke, children using the D'Nealian method establish a smooth, rhythmic flow of writing from the beginning. Continuously practicing the basics will lead to beautiful handwriting! 

This class is designed for learners who are learning cursive for the first time, or those would just like to refine their cursive writing. 

The goal is for learners to greatly improve their personal legibility - practice does not make perfect, but rather progress. 

Learners will work on holding their pencil properly and proper posture while writing, the basic strokes in cursive, letter formation, and connecting letters. 

Letters are taught by similarity in formation - handwriting is much more meaningful to children when they are able to say, "Look what I wrote in cursive! This says jump!", for example. 
I look forward to helping you grow and improve!
