I'm not familiar with the calligraphy training in Jinan, but I think there are the following points about the choice of calligraphy training institutions. First of all, teachers must be professional. The major I'm talking about is not the kind that looks good, but the serious calligraphy major, because such calligraphy teachers have received professional training, and their theoretical and practical levels are relatively professional, which can also better guide beginners. Second, the environment and learning atmosphere of this calligraphy training institution are relatively good. Some environments are noisy, while others are relatively quiet. You won't know this until you go to the scene. Therefore, before you decide to sign up, you might as well visit more, compare more and know more about the situation, which is good for your study. Third, it is best to be close to home, so it is more convenient to communicate with teachers at ordinary times. As long as you have time, you can go to the teacher to write and communicate with the teacher more, so that progress will be faster. For friends who are going to learn calligraphy, I think it is necessary to know some calligraphy or common sense of learning. For example, these articles "What kind of brush should beginners use to learn calligraphy? (Brush calligraphy is a must for beginners) "What kind of paper is good for beginners' calligraphy (there are differences between tassel paper, rice paper and meta-book paper)" "What kind of brush is good for writing? (detailed with attached drawings) "and so on.
