I’m going to university this September. Nearly everybody says “In university they don’t try to understand what you’ve written it is unintelligible.” My handwriting is incredibly ugly. I want to improve it by the time I go to uni.

In elementary school they only taught me cursive handwriting. And I never bothered to learn print handwriting. I can write like that but I’m really slow at it.

How can I improve my handwriting? Which exercises I should do?

Thanks in advance!

    It’s a motor skill. Consistent deliberate practice will yield results.

    Write very very slowly. Practice all the specific movements for all letter combos. Only allow your speed of writing to increase if the quality doesn’t suffer.

    It’s literally exactly like playing piano to your brain.
