The chopsticks should be placed in the hand in this order:

First, grab both chopsticks with one hand.

Next, line up the chopsticks with the other hand.

Then, shift the first hand to the correct position.

There you go!

Let's practice using the chopsticks:

First, hold the upper chopstick like a pencil, about one-third of the way from its top.

Next, place the second chopstick against your ring finger, holding it with the base of the thumb. It should be pointing the same way as the first chopstick.

Move the upper chopstick with your thumb, index, and middle fingers. Grab food between the lower and upper chopsticks.
