I have seen badly made fonts. We all have. But this beats'm all.

You have drawn all glyphs with "on-curve" nodes only, like this:



That makes the font practically unusable apart from very small sizes. To get smoother curves you must also use off-curve nodes.
When you want to make a font of (your) handwriting FontCreator is not a bad choice with its good tracer. Draw your alphabet on paper. Large size, so that you can pay attention to the shape you want. In your image-editor scan at 300 dpi grayscale and save every letter as png. In FontCreator make a new project. Right click an empty character and choose import. For this sort of handwriting font keep the default import settings. Having done this for all characters you only have to place the characters that have a tail correctly on the baseline.
Open the glyph transform wizzard, > Metrics > Bearings. choose an equal value for left and right and tick "Set left side bearing point at x=0". You can later fine tune the bearings for some individual letter.

In Font > Properties go to Metrics, click both Calculate buttons and then OK. Now save your project and export as ttf, otf and/or woff.

Done.

But it doesn't always need to be smooth. I need this font for tomorrow, or I will not pass exam I will improve, I promise, but for now, I just need something. I could choose from creating font or doing some caligraphy tasks. Can you please send me ttf? I beg you.

And, thank you for all of this information, I will use it.

I doubt you will pass an exam with a font made like this. If you do I have serious doubts about the one who judges your exam. I have not corrected the bearings, nor the metrics. As you choose for 100 units per em it is an otf.
