Write it
A 田字格 grid to write a character in, with the model behind it.
字
The practice grid Chinese children learn in, on screen. Write with a finger, a stylus or a mouse; the target sits in the same square at the same size, so what you wrote and what it should look like are directly comparable. It does not mark you: nothing can honestly measure handwriting from a few strokes, so it shows the two and lets you judge.
