I just started homeschooling my daughters, with absolutely no clue what I was doing.  The cursive program I originally started using for them was way too difficult for my youngest's motor skills.  I don't care if she has a beautiful, flowing cursive script.  I just care that she can write legibly.  After a few months, I decided to change gears for her, did some research, and found HWT.  In 3 months, my daughter has gone from super-messy writing t legible writing.  She may never have beautiful handwriting, but with HWT, at least I can read it now!
