As I used to slide my finger over a word to work with it, there was just a single line to enable me to delete the letter or word. Now I find when I place my finger down the entire word is selected and it is difficult to find the single line to move to where I would like it.
 
Assuming you’re using iOS13 or newer, to place the cursor you just use a single tap, then place your finger on the cursor and drag it to where you want it with a finger.
A double tap will select a single word and you can then use the handles to drag the selection to cover what you want.
A triple tap will select the whole sentence.
Four taps will select the whole paragraph.
 
I am updated. I was not aware of the taps. I will give it a try and thank you.
