Handwriting difficulties can have a significant impact on the academic performance of high school students, contributing to illegible handwriting and impaired handwriting speed. This is detrimental to the student in both classroom and exam situations.

Students with handwriting difficulties often find it hard to complete work in the set time frame. Students with illegible handwriting frequently miss out on valuable marks due to difficulty deciphering what the student has written.

Our therapists are experienced in assessing and treating high school students with handwriting difficulties, assisting them to improve their skills and written output.

Here are some tips on preparing for the HSC and getting an early start on study!

#1 Choose your study space
Choose a space thats free from distractions where you can study and not be disturbed.

#2 Start early
Staying organised and on top of your study throughout the year will help prevent unnecessary stress as exams draw closer.

#3 Create a realistic study plan
Schedule a manageable study timetable, don't forget to make time for hobbies, exercise, social activities and a good nights sleep! Think about the time of day when you work best and plan your study around those hours.

#4 Test yourself
After reading information make up questions and to test yourself to see how well you absorbed the information. Try teaching topics it to someone else, this is the best way to figure out the topics you’re confident in and the ones that need more revision.
