Polishing your penmanship with Barbara Nichol

[@lilianmiramontesjr.7550]

Watching a person teach about something they are passionate about is an absolute pleasure. The light in her eyes as she patiently imparts her knowledge is something that would prompt me to develop a desire to learn. That I feel, is the true art of teaching.

[@6122ula]

...Amen, Lillian...

[@gun1249]

Wow! Are you a teacher?

[@andrewtongue7084]

Exactly so, Lilian - there are no training aspects in the art of connexion with one's students - it is either innate, or absent.. :)

[@bluehillsqueen1433]

Yeap

[@apscafe]

amazing

[@BeingReal1]

Wait! She’s demonstrating by writing upside down…and it is still so beautiful!

[@FabiusPyromanus]

For sure the best handwriting tutorial I've seen on youtube.! Thorough, straight to the point and so easy to understand. Not a lot of boring talk of people trying to convince you, you just have to practice, yet not showing what to practice.

[@attactactical]

Unbelievable how she can writing upside down to explain it. Very nice tips. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ONLINEgermany]

Thank you for your feedback! 🙏

[@RightToSelfDefense]

People who have really mastered a subject after years and years of practice have refined it to a thing that is as simple as possible.

[@TheMsAbiola]

Possibly the most educational video on KZbin. I love it

[@ONLINEgermany]

I've been trying to improve my handwriting for a while now and just the tip on how to do properly hold the pen showed instant improvement.

[@notoriusdrifter40]

Oh my god.I changed my pen hold to this and it is so comfortable. I feel like i could write for the whole day and I write nicer too. Thank you Mrs. Barbara Nichol.

[@rajatnirkhe6321]

I feel writing letters is one of the best exercise for this

[@apscafe]

i love the passion they have for a good purpose. Solute to all the hard working people

[@Ghostinthewall873]

I always strive to improve my cursive handwriting as it is becoming more of a lost art… this video has helped tremendously! She is quite passionate about penmanship and has so much wisdom to impart. Thank you for this!

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

That was a pleasant viewing experience. The passion Ms. Nichol has for her area of expertise is more than evident in this short video.

[@robertf4209]

Simply brilliant. I love fountain pens but can't write with them. Was about to go back to pencil and gel pens and continue with markings that even I cannot read. What a wonderful instructor. The history and understanding she shares is an enormous help to me. The exercises are fantastic. Stumbled on this and hope to find more. I realize I'm years late to the comments, but THANK YOU !!!

[@ONLINEgermany]

Thank you for your great feedback! That makes us happy!

[@thadeufreitas8353]

Of all the methods I have encountered to polish my penmanship, Barbara Nichol's is by far my favourite!

[@GirlGeekLovesStampin]

What a pleasure to watch! What an amazing woman with deep knowledge - so informative and helpful! and especially beautiful!

[@Cherubini47]

A graceful lady, gifted with a beautiful handwriting, there is no doubt she have a heart of gold, and a soul of pure light.

[@ONLINEgermany]

Yes, so it is! 🙏

[@theaccountthatisntused2957]

God, yours video really opened my eyes! I've been practicing my writing for almost a year now with some improvement, but after watching this and seeing the reason behind everything and how to make it look great, it completely renewed my determination to make my hand writing better. Thank you so much!

[@aubreyilarde]

Oh wow, I would like her to be my penmanship teacher… her voice is so calming to the near and I like how she teaches!

[@stevegiggles7247]

This woman is an inspiration.

[@michaelgossett1415]

Concise, brief and to the point.

[@AkumaDante12]

And this is how was taught. It such a perfect way to write.

[@DHmanyoo]

Thank you so much for sharing your technique!

[@dragonchr15]

Bless this woman.

[@painpeace3619]

Beautiful.

[@ONLINEgermany]

Thank you! 💛

[@howstothis]

5:23 Things got real when u realize shes actually writing upside down to show him....

[@DieyenDualPen]

easy

[@nicojar]

As a teacher, I do that for my students. It's a skill you acquire quite quickly, assuming you practice every day, several times a day ;)

[@craftlit-channel]

@@nicojar with a fountain pen?

[@luisguillermoperezmejia7907]

Es increíble, no solo escribe bonito, sino que lo hace AL REVES. En realidad es un dibujo cada letra. Es difícil hacerlo bien al derecho, para ya pensar en hacerlo con la hoja al revés y en el ángulo contrario....me gusto mucho el video y me suscribí inmediatamente. Espero que haya muchos mas. Saludos a todos desde Medellín - Colombia.

[@goldameir8845]

Amo essas letras ,ainda vou conhecer essa Mestra

[@ciannacoleman5125]

I really like how she was teaching italic cursive (the style I was taught) it is still connected but not as illegible as modern cursive is.

[@berrykage]

I wish I had a teacher like her

[@rajeshinapanuri]

Love it ❤

[@HazyAbigail]

so beautiful!

[@HazyAbigail]

call me crazy, there were tears of joy as i watch her write

Great video! I'd recommend using and external mic if you're going to have that camera/lens on auto-focus though. It's a noisy one.

everything about this video is a Beauty

[@stacycote1011]

I thought I was crazy because I've always had this weird obsession with the way my handwriting looked. I have a even crazier obsession with pens and writing/practicing my name. I'm glad to find out that I don't need to go to a locked unit. 😂

[@ONLINEgermany]

I think you are not alone with this obsession, and few others will also exactly know what you mean.

[@mauricioluisvega8342]

I know you enjoy the life!. .... +10!.

[@radhasingh8426]

The toughest thing is to make the top of the pen point toward the right shoulder

[@SheLikesAsh]

It's such a beauty of penmanship, unfortunately its dying and considered unessential. I would definitely teach my kid the art of cursive.

[@BFHhandwriting]

Just 23 uppercase letters in early Rome. No 'J,' 'U' or 'W.' Thjey were ntroduced later.

[@evawu8088]

Wow!!!! Is she Australian?? I can't even tell if she had an accent because I'm Australian too 😂

[@cbr51]

She is Australian!

[@andrews4596]

Bogan is not the national accent its only a dialect and anglo australian is much clearer than other dialects in australia.

[@josequins9099]

OMG, I clearly remember in primary school, struggling with writing a line of cursive connected "i"s. Of course, iiiiiiiiii in cursive is the same flowing u that Barbara showed. I had to stay late to finish when all the other kids got to go to lunch. My writing is still atrocious.

[@ionluv]

MY Pen just never seems to run so fine.

Is the feeling and the passion. Is not for everybody. Let’s face it. I’m 65 and practice every day….

[@traceyleeherbert2326]

I am 80% deaf. I wish it has closed caption.

[@AloofMusician]

This lady says writing is to do with the finger, spencerians say it's to do with the arm and hand

[@andrews4596]

FatPanda spencerian is adaption but not necessarily suited for big hand sizes.

[@cbiscuit5]

As a lefty my writing needs the help of a saint and not a doctor

[@ONLINEgermany]

😂 practice, practice, practice...

[@mohdkhalidmohdnoh8020]

Can't see anything, next time try to place the camera on top instead

[@mradv9887]

not a good camera angle

[@mikefromflorida8357]

Great video and great instruction. Why the music though? Talking over music is distracting and just not needed. Thank you.

[@vince7735]

Cameraman: Show the pad!!!!

[@chevydude658]

I cant believe they didnt show her technique! We cant see how she forms the letters. I'm so disappointed.

[@katelim51]

Psh, she's not that great . . . . . . . . 6:32 Okay, nevermind..

[@Tonyv1951]

WTF??? Could be great advice, but why not SHOW US what she is doing. No use watching alady telling someone and not showing the right way up what she is doing.

[@jamesaritchie1]

Not bad, considering she gets everything wrong.
