About Us
The Write Size project is headed by a dedicated parent, who happens to also be an accomplished educationalist and cognitive neuroscientist. Like many parents he faced the challenge of helping his own children write legibly. Frustrated with the plethora of handwriting books that promised more than they delivered, and didn't seem to follow a logical and evidence-based design, he decided to create his own.
​
Guided by rigorous research and development, the Write Size series is a collection of products rooted in evidence-based design, employing approaches supporting letter formation and alignment, while employing validated attentional control strategies such as multimodal learning.
​
We sincerely wish you success in helping your child achieve legible writing. Parenting is a serious and worthy endeavor, and we believe that the Write Size series is a valuable resource for your journey. Thank you for investing in your child's future!
Write Size Books
Our Approach
​
Our products are meticulously crafted and based on extensive research into the development of precise handwriting. We strive to address common challenges faced in learning handwriting, such as distorted alignment, improper spacing, and missing or added strokes.
​
Innovation at the Core
​
We pride ourselves on innovation, with our grid system and other cutting-edge solutions designed to ensure that learners overcome hurdles on their path to mastering handwriting.
​
The Multimodal Advantage
​
To enhance the learning experience, we employ a multimodal approach. Learners are encouraged to repeat a letter-formation mantra with each pen or pencil stroke, making the process both engaging and effective.
​
Mantras encourage appropriate letter formation. This is critical as it establishes the template for the later development of cursive (joined-up) writing.

Our Philosophy
Our Products

The Write Size series is our first offering. Many learners struggle with creating uniform letters and maintaining even spaces between them. To address this issue, a unique format has been created, designed to provide a way to help to align letter formation and encourage consistent sizing of letters, while simultaneously minimizing cognitive load.
​
Moreover, a multimodality approach is utilized with use of letter-formation mantras*, whereby sensory alignment on a specific task is facilitated. This active focus of multiple senses on a task is designed to produce a state of flow.

​
But it doesn't stop there. The series also provides you with a learning schedule for your child, incorporating principles such as the spacing effect and repeated practice. You can find these schedules within the pages of the Write Size books.
​
In respect to neurodiversity, although our fairly limited studies require more data, our Write Size series has been designed to optimize learning for children with ADD/ADHD.

Evidence-based Strategies
In seeking to achieve the highest standards, at Write Education, we operate an evidence-based model for product development. This begins with each design being underpinned by evidence in the research literature on how we and our children learn, followed by extensive testing.
We also strongly believe in the glorious Japanese philosophy of "kaizen" in working towards continuous improvement of our products.
