Meet Your Instructor
Handwriting is more than a tool for communication; it's a window into the soul. Let's keep this beautiful art alive for generations to come." - Cheyenne Tucker, Founder of The Cursive Connection
Hi there! My name is Cheyenne and I love handwriting. You might say I am a collector of handwritten notes from my loved ones, especially those who have gone on before me. Their legacy lives in their handwritten words. I currently am a professional calligraphy and cursive teacher. But besides handwriting and homeschooling I live in Utah and love adventuring with my 4 boys and husband. Prior to becoming immersed in the handwriting world, I was a full time educator. I taught PreK and Kindergarten for several years and then chose to stay home with my children. My spare time was filled with learning calligraphy and am excited to have found a way to combine my passion of education and homeschooling with cursive and calligraphy.
