A simple way to learn your name
- Learn the capital first letter on its own until you can write it without looking.
- Practise the lowercase letters in pairs, joining each to the next (for example “li”, then “iv”).
- Write the whole name slowly on a tracing worksheet, then on blank lines.
- Add dots and crosses last, then speed up a little each day.
Every letter also has its own page in the cursive alphabet, and the beginner's guide covers posture, slant and the order to learn letters in.
Questions
How long does it take to learn to write my name in cursive?
It depends on the length of the name and how often you practise. Short daily sessions work better than one long one: get each letter comfortable first, then practise the joins.
Why does my name look different when I join the letters?
Letters change slightly when they connect: the exit stroke of one letter becomes the entry of the next, and letters like b, o, v and w join at the midline instead of the baseline.
