There are many benefits of good handwriting. Teachers read the work of students that is well and neatly written. A good handwriting earns you some marks too! They, however, strain to read illegible handwriting and this might make you lose some marks.When you grow up and you start looking for a job, a good handwriting will give you a better chance of getting a job than a poor handwriting. Some employers want people to write in their own handwriting. If yours is poor, the application may not even be read!
