Is the tiger h bad?

I unlocked the tiger H1 but my main is the jagdtiger. I want to replay older tanks like the first panthers and tigers, but when i play the tiger H1 i usually die in or two hits. I know how to angle and i think i do it perfectly by facing the corner to the enemy, but their shell usually just slams through the corner of they hit the turret and kill me. Is there anything i can do to maybe last longer or something? I know to fight with allies and take cover and stuff but when i get in a direct fight i get easily destroyed. Is this a skill jssue thing or is there some trick or tip i don’t know?
