how do you practice to get such good handwriting? mines sucks really bad
Hii! I think one of the most important things when trying to improve your handwriting is your materials.
Pens obviously make a huge difference to your writing for three main reasons. The main reason is the size of the pen itself. If you would like your handwriting to be bigger, you should choose a pen with a bigger body (I really like the Zebra Sarasa Clip Pen) whereas if you’d like your writing to be smaller, your should pick something with a smaller body (Muji Pens, Cute Cat Pen, There are a bunch of cheap ballpoint pens that are smaller too!)
The next thing that makes a difference is tip size. I have pretty small writing and I normally won’t write with anything above 0.38mm. It’s pretty difficult to find good pens at this size so I may write with 0.5mm. Once again, if you want your handwriting to be bigger, use a bigger tip size (1.0mm - 0.5mm), If you want smaller writing, use a smaller tip size (0.5mm - 0.38mm).
You also want to pay attention to the type of pen that you are using.
Ballpoint Pens are good for people who have bigger writing, they dry quickly so you don’t have to worry if you write fast and they are long lasting. However, they can look quite messy, they aren’t super smooth and the ink can gather sometimes. They also aren’t too good if you want to write for long periods of time (I find that my hand usually aches after a while)
Rollerball Pens are similar to ballpoint pens, they are also good for people with bigger writing, you get a really dark line, the ink dries quickly and you don’t have to apply much pressure (good for long periods of writing). They can sometimes bleed/feather, they don’t last too long and they leak when left without a lid.
Gel Pens are really good for people with smaller writing. They are often very smooth and they leave a neat line that looks very clean. You can often get gel pens in a variety of colours too. They don’t bleed much which makes the page look really tidy. They take a while to dry which can be frustrating and they also run out pretty quick.
Fountain Pens are good for people who write in cursive. They have a good colour range and you can also get a lot more line variation. They can be difficult to write with though and I wouldn’t recommend them for people who are trying to improve their writing.
After you have chosen a pen that you like, you can either just practice writing by doing it often (slower results but less effort) or you can write out the alphabet and pick out the things that you want to change and then practice a LOT, (continuously writing out the alphabet, writing drills, handwriting worksheets). You should also try just writing slower (when you have the time, don’t fall behind in a lesson because you’re trying to write slowly). I find that writing slower massively improves my writing.
As you get more practice, you can start writing faster and it should start to become easier.
Sorry for the long reply, thank you for the ask! <3
