[diamondwilliams]

Lord have mercy! I just tried it just like you said and wrote flawlessly!! I'm so used to writing fast and having a death grip on my pen, lol. Thank you!

Now i know I've been holding my pencil wrong all this time, I guess that's why i have a bump on my finger lol

Thank you for posting this, I am a post grad University student and I have always criticized myself for my terrible penmanship. A part of it is that I am lefty that was forced to write with my right, but there was a lot of things in this video about paper positions and how to manage the paper that I had no idea about. I feel like this should have been taught to me in elementary school, and perhaps it was and I just forgot or didn't care because I was a kid. But as an adult this very helpful.

I never thought I'd live to see the day this has to be taught... very good video, clear and to the point. I hope Humanity doesn't lose the ability to write with pen and pencil, it is far too precious.

I like this lady. I love her voice. I learned how to hold my pen correctly.

I only watched this video because I was under the impression that I grip my writing instrument incorrectly due to the writers bump I had formed over the years but apparently... this is not true because i have been holding my pen/pencil just like the lady in the video. So it must be that I apply too much pressure when writing.

I'm 20 years old and trying not to further damage my right hand. My fingers and wrist always hurt after writing for 20+ minutes and I feel myself writing too hard. Thank you for your video demonstration of the correct handwriting posture, now I just need practice with this method. 👍

Why the heck am I watching this as a grown man who is about to finish college?

Thank you so much for this video. Teaching my 7 year old cursive and he wouldn't listen to my instructions which where the same as the ones in the video. Once he saw someone else doing it then he decided that he would do it that way.

Thank you for providing this extremely nice video, you have saved my life you are so smart, this way feels gooood and comfortabble, I have been holding my pencil wrong all the time

Thank you! I've tried a few different writing positions that are "correct" but this is the only one that doesn't hurt the joints on my pinky. I have very large hands so it really hurts when I write even for a short time because most pens, pencils, etc aren't ergonomical for me, but this helps a ton!

and here I am watching this video sitting on a chair criss-cross....

Thank you! I always thought that i positioned the paper the wrong way but it is right, the way i grab the pencil is right too, so the only thing i need is to align the left corner of the paper with my left shoulder thanks!

Thanks for posting this video, it has helped me stay comfortable for long periods of time when writing.

been trying to figure out how to hold a pencil with correct posture and the step at 1:20 finally helped me figure out how to do the grip
