Answer

Dear Mike,

I’m sorry lo know that you have difficulty in learning Chinese calligraphy. In fact you are not alone. Many people, including some of my classmates, feel it hard to write with a writing brush.

However, it is very important to learn the artistic handwriting of characters. Learning Chinese calligraphy is very helpful in learning more about Chinese culture and history. Besides, written Chinese is well-known for its beauty.

If you want to be a good user of the writing brush, first you have to be patient. Second, you have to keep practising since practice makes perfect. Lastly, you should pay attention to the use of calligraphy models. Just be confident and practise hard and you'll be an expert in Chinese calligraphy.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Li Hua
