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!

    In my opinion, choosing the right kind of pen is very important. I use ballpoint pens mostly and prefer some pens much more because of their tip, weight , thickness and shape.

    I have really bad handwriting. All my teachers used to complain about it back in school. I did improve it slightly over the years with practice. But nowadays I type on touchscreen or keyboards 95% of the time and in the rare occasions I use a pen I have starting trouble and my handwriting gets really really bad. Hell I can’t even write stuff on a straight line. Writing may become less frequent in the future in most jobs I guess.

    But that being said, if you wanna improve it keep practicing, hold the pen properly and choose a pen with the type of tip that works best for you. You can even practice on those handwriting books.
