Tips for each letter

h
Making the hump too narrow, so h looks like an l and an i. Give the hump some width.
e
Making the loop too big, so e looks like l. The loop stays below the midline.
l
Making the loop so thin it disappears, so l looks like a tall i without a dot. Keep the loop open.
o
Dropping the ending to the baseline. Cursive o ends high, so the next letter starts from the midline.
