How to Write C in Cursive
Cursive C looks soft and open. It flows in one clean curve without sharp corners. Both uppercase and lowercase forms share the same smooth motion. You can write them easily once you understand the shape.
Lowercase Cursive C
Start from the bottom line. Move your pencil slightly up and form a small curve to the right. Circle around to make an open loop. Stop the stroke before it closes. Keep the end ready to join the next letter. Practice each line slowly until every curve looks clean and balanced.
Uppercase Cursive C
Start near the top line. Curve left in a wide loop and bring the line down and around to the baseline. Make a soft open curve that looks like a half circle. The top should remain smooth and rounded.
Write the uppercase cursive C with an elegant, wide shape. Give it a classic handwritten style. Raise the top curve high but keep it balanced. Leave enough space inside the curve to keep the letter clear and readable.
Uppercase cursive C appears often in names and titles. Write it carefully so it looks strong. Practice cursive worksheets until each stroke feels steady and natural.
