The best way to improve your handwriting is through practice, so start by writing on a daily basis. Handwriting worksheets or workbooks can be really helpful for tracing letters and learning the height and placement of each letter. Keep a relaxed grip on your writing utensil, try angling the paper a few different ways until you find out what works best for you, and take your time forming the letters. Using a nice pen or pencil and special stationery or pretty paper can make it even more fun.

Consider adopting calligraphy style by slowing down, taking your time, and focusing on each letter. Treat each letter as a small piece of art, paying attention to its shape and structure to create more consistent and aesthetically pleasing handwriting.
For a particular style, use worksheets to trace over the letters repeatedly and build muscle memory that will help you naturally replicate the style. Consistent practice is key—rather than practicing sporadically for long periods, aim for shorter, daily sessions of about 10 minutes and improve on that.

The only way you'll get better at something is by doing it over and over and *over*.
If you're really passionate about getting good handwriting, practicing every day is my suggestion. It doesn't have to be legit tracing words. Just journaling and writing stories is what I do, and I get many compliments on my handwriting! If I can learn to do something, so can you. Give it a go! (Ngl I've been writing like this for only 4 years. Good luck!)
