have you worked with someone who had Dysgraphia, that was born prematurely? I am struggling with writing badly. My cursive is a joke. Print Ok. Spellcheck and Grammarly and my errors cause me burnout. Essays are horrible. I need help with it GCU. I work with SDS services with visual impairment. I use TTS, and SNHU was better. I am stuck trying to get my Masters in Psychology. I can draw though. I was mainstreamed in public school and pushed through grades. The Cursive was very messy. notes are messy. I hold utensils like a baby. for more control. I noticed the larger the font the better. Even operating a Wii controller to bowl was too hard. I break colored pencil tips for holding them too hard. yet I would like to draw that way. Felt tips I smash the tip too. They wear out faster. I have arthritis in my hands too. Post-its are too small, I lose track of them. I use sharpies and legal pads for college, ZoomText, and Dragon, when connected. I need help.
