Any tips for handwriting improvement?

I have been a bit worried about my handwriting. My English tutor who's been a VCAA assessor in the past made a remark that she would possibly mark me down rather than trying to decode my handwriting.

I would hate to lose marks over something so stupid. Has anyone changed their handwriting for the better before? If so, how?

Try going to Officeworks and finding some pens than work really well for you. I did this on Monday and my handwriting has improved a bit.
Do you think your handwriting is messy because your brain is working so fast and your hand can't keep up? I think that's my problem!

Correction techniques will depend on your handwriting; maybe post a picture of a sample?

Generally, writing taller and thinner helps a lot. It also puts less strain on your hands. If you're writing cursive or without enough space between words then remind yourself to break it up and move your hand more often.

Pens can also make a big difference depending on how messy your writing is :)
