सवाल
At what age can a child start cursive?
Usually from about 7 years, once the child writes print letters well.
How long does it take?
The course is one month. Most children can write joined words in 2 weeks and full sentences by the end.
Pencil or pen?
We start with a pencil. Older children can move to a gel or fountain pen in the last week.
Will it make my child write faster?
Yes. Since the pencil is lifted less, cursive is usually faster once the joins are learnt.
