“teacher” — stroke-order animation and a free printable 田字格 practice sheet below.
Stroke order: 老师
Each character loops its stroke order using the open-source hanzi-writer dataset. Watch a few loops, then trace it on paper — that's how handwriting sticks.

Writing notes
老师 is the word children write most after their own name. 师 rewards slow practice: the left vertical stroke and the巾 component must stay balanced in the square.
Why a paper sheet instead of an app? HSK 1 exams test writing from memory, not tapping. Muscle memory for 老师 comes from tracing it in tianzige grids until the proportions land inside the cross guides every time — usually ten to twenty printed repetitions.
