Left-handedness. Doing exercises

Position your hand correctly. When training yourself to write with your left hand, it's important that you hold the pen or pencil comfortably.[2]

  • Many people are inclined to grip the pen too tightly, balling their hand up into a claw around it. However, this creates tension in the hand, causing it to cramp up and become tired easily. When this happens, you will not be able to write well.

  • Keep the hand loose and relaxed instead, mirroring how you hold the pen with your right hand. Make a conscious effort to relax your hand every few minutes while you are writing.

  • The materials you write with can also make a significant difference to how comfortable you find writing with your left hand. Use nice quality, lined writing paper and a good pen with free-flowing ink.

  • Also tilt the paper or writing pad you're working with 30 to 45 degrees to the right. Writing at this angle should feel more natural.

Practice your ABC's. Begin by writing out your ABC's with your left hand, in both capital and lowercase letters. Go slowly and carefully, concentrating on making each letter as well-formed as possible. Accuracy is more important than speed for now.[3]

  • As a point of comparison, you should also write out your ABC's using your right hand. From then on, you can focus on getting the letters you write with your left hand as perfect as those you write with your right.

  • Hold on to your practice pages by keeping them in a folder somewhere. Then when you reach a point where you feel frustrated and tempted to give up on your quest to become left-handed, you can look back on these sheets and see how far you have progressed already. This should give you renewed motivation to continue.


Practice writing sentences.
 When you become tired with the ABC's, you can progress onto writing sentences.

  • Start with something simple like "I am writing this sentence with my left hand." Remember to go slowly and focus on neatness rather than efficiency.

  • Then try writing "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" over and over again. Since this sentence contains every letter of the alphabet, it's a good one to practice with.

  • Other sentences containing all 26 letters are: "The five boxing wizards jumped quickly" and "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs".
