25 and learned cursive in public school, likely around 3rd grade? But that part I can remember exactly. I write in a mix of cursive and print, haha.

I honestly just had to google what cursive was XD Im from the UK and we called it 'joined up writing' when i was in primary school and thats just how we wrote :/ We were taught to write and thats how we were taught. Writing joined up was what you did once you learned to write all your letters. I print if im having to print my name after signing something or if im writing out something that has to be clearly seen but apart from that i join my letters and i didnt realise that it wasnt something that everyone was taught!

I am 29 and i wen't to public school and learned and failed miserably to write in cursive in 2nd grade but my cursive evolve into my own version of half cursive half print hebehe.

29 and learned cursive in school. I learned around grade 3 and yet barely ever used it back then. I can still manage to use it now a days but my printing is far better (some days). I still have issues with certain cursive letters... like Q.

Yes. And I was awful at it. I even spent a year writing almost entirely in cursive and it never improved. My signature is a bunch of spikes like a heart monitor lol

I do the same thing, a mixture of both. If I were to be asked to only write in cursive it would look extremely messy.

I was taught in school (second or third grade) and my mother had me practice constantly. We had a handwriting class too and I was in a parochial school.

I had mentioned in the past to some of my co-workers that when looking at the back of old photos (sometimes there is writing on the back) or even looking at old documents that kids of today won't know what it says so we older folks would be interpreters, lol.

im 33..i was taught probably from the 3rd grade on...i use a hybrid version of cursive and print now in my day to day life.

I'm 30, Brazilian and went to public school until high school. Back when I was a student, learning cursive was pretty much obligatory, so, it ended up being the fastest way in which I could write.

On the bright side, I always receive compliments over my handwriting; so, I feel proud of it and thankful for having learned such a pretty way of expressing myself.

I'm 22 - I went to a Montessori school in Australia (private) and I believe we were taught cursive around the age of 4 or 5. I remember having different workbooks based on difficulty level which we all worked through for several years. I believe we were still learning cursive through to age 10? Not sure. Once I completed the books with my right hand I actually chose to learn with my left too 😂 though I only did a couple of books left handed, haha!

Cursive was never actually required in school though - All the teachers asked for was legible hand writing (LOL). I can still write in cursive, however I prefer my own "evolution" of the cursive I was taught... AKA a mix of cursive and print. I've started writing in block letters more as an adult too! :)

Yes, I did learn cursive. I learned it at school, don't recall which grade. Somewhere around grade 3, in public school.

I'm 16, and I was taught cursive in public school near Seattle. We learned in 3rd grade, then my teachers required it until 5th grade. Currently I use a mix of print and cursive, and sometimes accidentally switch mid-sentence

I'm 19. I learned cursive in 3rd grade and was required to use it until 6th grade when they started not to care. Now my writing is a combination of cursive and print, whichever is quicker to write.

Yes. I learned in school while in the 3rd grade. I went to a public school and I'm twenty-seven. We never really used it after that so I need to reteach myself again because oh gosh it's horrible. lol Thankfully, my son is learning to write cursive this year so that is a plus for me. :)

I'm 22 and it was required in middle school for me. I also went to a private Catholic school where it seems to be a way bigger deal than in public school. Only used it on the SATs in high school twice then haven't used it since.

I'm 26, went to public school and had the official cursive writing lessons in 3rd grade. I began learning at home around 1st grade though (because I really liked my mom's handwriting and wanted to learn). I don't remember if I was required to continue writing cursive through the rest of elementary school though. I wrote in cursive all through middle school when we were all under the impression you'll need to know in college... liessss...

My natural handwriting has become a nice mix of both print and cursive, but my signature is in cursive (well... at least the part I write, which is "Ch-bump-l-bump- B W-bump-t-bump- and a huge line coming up from that last bump to cross the t is extend far right... Like so... This one is a little older, but you get the jist.)

cursive never really improves ;) what improves [or should improve] is your understanding of other people's cursive, should you see it..
if anything, cursive writing gets worse because you get used to how's written, and the faster you want to write, the messier and 'uglier' it looks ;p i know this from experience. if you want a calligraphic cursive, you'd probably be slow at it - as i am.

yeah i learned it! i'm 22 and i learned it back in 3rd and 4th grade in public school.

I did learn to write in cursive. I went to a private Catholic school as well, and they began teaching us in kindergarten or first grade. I'm old as dirt... errrrr I mean, I'm 31 😆

This makes me laugh because we were told the same thing and then also encountered the same when I got to high school. I'm old enough that we really were not even pushed to start typing all of our papers until late high school but even if you handed in a hand-written paper, teachers encouraged you to print because they simply couldn't read a lot of kids' cursive.

We learned it in 2nd grade and kept practicing it in 3rd I remember the teachers scolded some new kid in 1st grade because he was already writing in cursive. u___u (as you can probably guess, I went to public school, where being ahead of the curve really wasn't encouraged)

I still mostly write in cursive, or a mix, now though, my print is rather shaky and looks awkward.

i actually spent years teaching myself to have perfect handwriting because i had really ugly handwriting to begin with. first i wrote exclusively in cursive and then i started writing my a's with the little top part, putting a line through my 7s, etc because i wanted to be fancy!! i thought i was so fancy.
