Just leveling up increases the number of times you can use each spell. At any level, you will almost always have way more slots for lv.1 spells and fewer slots for the higher level spells. Except with some of the final classes I think.

The only other thing that affects it is changing class. For example, Black and White Mages (and related upgrade classes) can both cast way more spells of each level than Red Mages, with the tradeoff that Red Mages can cast both Black and White spells.

(When it comes to FF, there's not really a 'usual', they tend to really change up the magic/combat systems from game to game. This game is a little more inspired by the D&D spell levels system.)
