Tatiana H.

4 Handwriting lessons

She stays focused on the learning goal for each lesson, and provides tons of practice for my son, so he can develop muscle memory. We also appreciate her reports at the end of each class. We know what content was covered in each lesson, and the goals for the next class. My son loves her classes, and he is so motivated to improve his penmanship. We couldn't be happier with the results so far. If you are looking for a great handwriting tutor with proven results, look no further. You just found Sapir.

Mrs. W.

4 Handwriting lessons

So far this summer he's had three very thorough handwriting (cursive) lessons with Ms. Sarah to correct spacing, letter formation, improve his signature, and increase speed. He completed his homework assignments at our local library in two 30 minute sessions in between the weekly tutoring appointment. His handwriting is now very legible and vastly improved.

Veronica F.

5 Handwriting lessons

Lisa has been helping my son with handwriting. Starting with our first session, she has had the perfect approach. She did a great job building rapport with him in the first session, has used very simple but very effective tools in subsequent sessions, and has been willing to expand beyond what I had initially hoped to do. I would highly recommend Lisa for anyone wanting to find a tutor to help their child with handwriting!
