- Use dotted or squared paper.
- Develop an eye for simplicity of lines.
- Use ultra fat felt tips for writing on display boards.

Don't
- Sketch with a flurry of light feathery lines.
- Rush. Just a tad longer makes a great difference
- Use you normal handwriting script. Stick to printing.
- Use too many colours. Keep it simple.

Try
