amateurishly

/ˈæməˌtʃɝɪʃli/ adv

In an amateurish manner; without expertise or professionalism.

Word Origin From Latin amare 'to love' — an amateur is someone who does something for love, not for money. Amateurishly means 'in a manner of a lover, not a professional,' often implying a lack of polish. The same root gives us amatory (relating to love), enamor (to inflame with love), and paramour (a lover). So amateurishly is about doing something with passion but perhaps without skill.
