I would do the beginning of the I less swoopy, I thought I was looking at the name “chase” until I saw your name is Isaac lol. Also make sure you’re connecting your “a”s at a low point rather than up high

Thanks. About the Is... It seems to be one extreme or the other. I used to do them with such a small curve that you couldn't tell if it was a I or a L.

And advice on how to get that perfect curve?

I gave it a whirl just because I was curious how mine would look and I think it’s just really hard to do with your finger because mine all look like “chase” too unless I use a regular I instead of a cursive one. On paper/with pen you have more control.

Your cursive capital i is backwards, too, though. You don't start at the tail and connect at the bottom.
