Handwriting classes in Mumbai: one-on-one online classes from home
Writing Guru teaches handwriting to students in Mumbai in live one-on-one classes on Google Meet. You do not travel anywhere: the class happens at your home on a phone or a laptop, whether you live in Colaba, Borivali or across the harbour in Navi Mumbai. The classes cover Hindi and English handwriting for ages 8 and up, and there is no fee to pay in advance.
How the online classes work
Each class has one teacher and one student.
- Send one page of your child’s handwriting on WhatsApp to +91 99717 85004, and Sudhir Sir marks what needs fixing, free. The free handwriting check works the same way.
- Take a free trial class on Google Meet. There is no advance payment and no commitment.
- Start the one-on-one classes, which follow the LV Method (below).
- Keep up the guided practice. It runs from 3 months to a year, depending on the plan, with 24/7 chatbot support, and you can clear doubts online from 3 to 9 pm, Monday to Friday.
- Most students see a change within 7 days of the first class, and in their school notebook within about 15 days. If the handwriting does not improve, there is no fee.
What the classes teach
A student learns Hindi, English or both, depending on the plan.
There are four styles: print, semi-cursive, straight cursive and slanting cursive. The teacher looks at your child’s handwriting first and then picks the style that suits them. Our page on types of handwriting shows each one side by side.
Sudhir Kumar, who founded Writing Guru in 2013, designed the LV Method. The letter L holds two lines, the standing line (1) and the sleeping line (2), and the letter V holds the two slants, left (3) and right (4). Every letter is taught as a short sequence of those four codes, so a child always knows the next stroke. The letter M, for example, is 1, full back, 3, 4, 1.
Writing speed can dip for a few days while a child gets used to the new way of writing, then it climbs past where it started. A stopwatch at home is enough to track it.
Online or a centre near you: how to choose
Mumbai has both kinds of class: batches at a centre, and one-on-one classes online.
| A batch class at a centre | A one-on-one class online | |
|---|---|---|
| Travel | A trip there and back for every class | None, the class is at home |
| The teacher’s attention | Shared across the batch | On one student for the whole class |
| Where you can live | Close enough to the centre | Anywhere in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai or Thane |
A batch can suit a child who enjoys writing beside others. A child whose letters need correcting stroke by stroke needs the teacher’s eyes on their page.
Questions to ask any handwriting class
If you are comparing classes from a directory listing, ask each one:
- Is the class one-on-one, or a batch?
- Which styles are taught, and who decides which one your child learns?
- Is there a method behind the lessons, or only tracing books?
- Can you try one class first, free?
- How will you see progress, for example a before-and-after page or a timed speed test?
- When do you pay: in advance, or once the handwriting has changed?
At Writing Guru the classes are one-on-one, and the teacher picks the style after reading your child’s handwriting. Lessons follow the LV Method, the first class is a free trial, and you see progress in the school notebook and on a stopwatch. There is no advance payment, and no fee without a result. Our plans and prices set out what each plan includes.
Common mistakes when choosing a class
- Choosing by distance alone. Even the nearest centre can mean a long ride in Mumbai traffic for every class.
- Paying for months before seeing a single class. A free trial shows you how your child will be taught.
- Expecting a change without practice. Each plan includes guided practice, and the result depends on that practice being done.
- Picking a style before anyone has looked at the handwriting. The right style depends on how your child writes now.
What you need at home
- A phone, tablet or laptop with a camera, and Google Meet
- A table and a chair where your child can sit upright, with the page in good light
- A pencil or pen, and a ruled notebook
- A quiet corner for the length of the class
