For the last 20 years I have been working as a children's occupational therapist providing advice to teachers and parents in the UK. Handwriting is a complex skill and I really enjoy helping children aged 5 to 11 years master this. I work with primary school teachers on a weekly basis and have followed individual children throughout all their grades.
I believe in offering practical and realistic solutions to everyday difficulties. Everything I recommend is based on evidence and the latest medical research. I have also tried my tips out in class so that I know they are successful.
My programmes have been endorsed by the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (UK professional body). I have also written two books: - Boosting Learning in the Primary Classroom - The Early Handwriting Toolkit Go to http://www.helpwithhandwriting.co.uk/ to find out more about these books.
