New Albany, IN . . . Do you know a child who experiences frustration making their handwriting legible?  Do report cards come home stating, “Needs to improve penmanship?”  Do you battle over homework neatness?  If you answer “Yes!” to any of these questions, we have the solution for you.

Handwriting Rescue is designed to teach your child methods of improving their handwriting and make writing less stressful.  The techniques are simple for children to learn, and exercises at home may be as easy as playing with chalk and making cookies.  The course is designed to lessen children’s frustration and make writing a better experience. 

Classes are held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for three-week sessions.  Each class is one hour.

Cost:  $75.00 / three-week session of nine classes
