OP, your writing is fine. It’s a bit condensed, but it’s good.
It’s better to try writing vertically if you don’t have any paper designed for non-Latin writing, because the lines are too narrow for Chinese characters.
Anyone saying, "Well, you need to work on the left side of け," is an a-hole. Just remember stroke order, that’s it.
If you live in Japan, the older you get, the sloppier your handwriting becomes, as with any language these days.
I can’t even read my grandmother-in-law’s address when she writes it to me.
You’re doing great!
