I'm level 16 which makes battling many Draugr Wrights hard. My defense is just way too low, and I don't have enough time or strong enough magic to take them out.
My one-handed skill is at 62 and my strongest weapon does 33+10 enchanted damage. Are there any ways to level up easily?

In Skyrim, it is actually counter-productive to level up quickly. While this does make you stronger, it will make your enemies stronger as well, because power level of enemies in Skyrim is usually based off your level. So leveling up isn't going to help much.
More specific to your problem, with 62 One-handed skill, your offense probably isn't your biggest problem. You probably want to level up your Armor and/or Block skill, the easiest way to do that is going to be finding something (Not a mage-type) that isn't too threatening and let it pound on you for awhile. When your health gets low, back off (or kill it), heal, then repeat.
Notably, the harder your chosen enemy hits you, the more skill you gain, so going for a bigger opponent isn't a bad idea. Just make sure it isn't strong enough to kill you with a few hits. If you're a fan of Blocking, all of the above applies, but also add in shield-bashing for doing damage.
If you have some gold handy, you could also pay a trainer to help you level up the skills you need. Considering your combat problems One-handed, Armor (whichever type you're using) and Block are going to be the ones you want to spend on.
