The full Magic Link Handwriting Programme teaches neat, cursive handwriting in 30 simple steps. The whole programme contains 7 hours of clear teaching video instructions with printable colour-coded worksheets. Each lesson lasts about 15 minutes and pupils should achieve neat handwriting in around 4-6 weeks.

Lively music and ‘top tips’ throughout each step reinforce learning and make the acquisition of handwriting fun. The Magic Link Handwriting Programme has proven results with pupils who have messy handwriting, including those who are hypermobile, have dyspraxia, dyslexia, dysgraphia, Asperger’s, ADHD or who are left-handed.

Pupils will discover how to achieve neat, legible, joined-up, cursive handwriting, which can be used in schools as well as in everyday life situations. They will be taught accurate formation of capital letters, punctuation and numbers. Each worksheet is written in the unique Magic Link font which enables clear, cursive, handwriting. There are no unnecessary flicks or curls which often confuse children. Confidence increases quickly when following this highly structured technique.

On the final step, consolidation exercises build up speed, as well as exercises to incorporate writing in sentences, story writing, diaries and complex vocabulary. For primary school children, there is a Certificate of Achievement to win on successful completion of the programme. Included after every step is a short and fun cartoon animation, to reinforce handwriting skills and motivate younger children.

The course is designed to run online on PCs, laptops, iPads, iPhones, smartphones and tablets, through an internet browser. Presented by Lee Dein, the creator of the programme, a speech therapist and dyslexia teacher, who has over 30 years of teaching experience.

Unlimited course access is for 12 months (on average completed in 6-8 weeks) and the price is for home users only.
