tt in cursive
Joining t to t is one of the pairs that comes up all the time in English, and it is worth practising as a unit. The t finishes up at the midline, and the t starts at the top of the letter, so the connecting stroke has to bridge that gap.
Carry the connector straight across at the midline without lifting the pen. Keep the pen on the paper through the join, and finish any dots or crossbars after the whole word is written. Because both letters are t, the second one copies the first, so aim for matching height and slant.
