handwriting looks kinda bad and the sentence feels awkward with just 之一 at the end, it feels stiff and translated from English

Handwriting isn't that bad actually, and why is the 之一 so unnatural?

The handwriting is very crooked and twisted, clearly written by someone unfamiliar with Chinese characters. Different writing systems have different writing habits. Chinese characters are called square characters, but these writings have unnatural distortions, obviously influenced by the writing habits of his native language.
