On the point of writing greek letters and symbols I've taken to practicing a Greek letter possibly hundreds of times when I first encounter it. Just write it, write it, and write it again. At first it's just to understand how my hand has to move to write it efficiently, then I move on to attempting to write precisely. Finally, I write it over and over pushing myself to get it to the speed at which it will not interrupt the rest of the notes when it happens. This approach has be wildly successful for me and while it does take some time it is always time well spent. Recently, I ran into § and just had to figure it out. Honestly, I was out of my depth in the Wikipedia article and I don't even know what it represents. It was fun, though.
