Probably too late for this but what the hell I'll say it anyway.
1. Your ひらがな
うs look like カタカナ
ラs. Be mindful of that. Notice the difference.
2. Your 日 in
時 and in
曜 needs to be smaller and half way between the other part of the 漢字. When writting by hand this is often the case but as you can see on the computer its a little different. But then again, it could just this particular font. It can vary but yeah I'm pretty sure what I'm saying, most Japanese people would agree that the 日 part is written a smaller when it part of another 漢字. This is referred to as a radical of a 漢字. Radicals give you an indication about what the 漢字 is associated with. If you haven't learned about those yet you will soon. Its pretty easy to get your head around it anyway.
3. In the character
週 try to be mindful of the fact that the right side of the character (the one you write first)
never joins the tail at the bottom.
4. In your character
後 the top part on the right hand side of your character looks too much like an English Z or lightening bolt. Try to remember this order on how to write
後i) write カタカナ の twice then vertical stroke connecting the bottom ノ
ii) write ひらがな く and カタカナ ム underneath but joining it
iii) then write sort of カタカナ タ but a little bit stretched out and the final stroke a bit longer. This is the method which my 1年の先生 taught me when writting 漢字。For me it works well.
5. Your ん in 年 look too much like a cursive English lower case n. In Japanese ん looks more like a lower case cursive English h but slanted and is never curled at the top.
6. Be mindful of ひらがな る and ろ. I know when I was learning I mixed them up all the time but you have to remember the difference. This sorta helped me remember. ろ looks similar to an English cursive Z and る is basically the same but the end in curled. Either that you could look at in terms of a number 3. That might help as well.
Sorry if I'm coming off harsh but to be honest this is what learners of anything need. You may feel stupid but, in the end you're better off and your become more disciplined.
