Ok now I will know next time thanks for the Practice @Nee @Tsumia
And I’ll also give a couple links from the manual to learn from:
Hope to see you in IFATC soon!

Also, if there’s low visibility at an airport. You can’t be doing pattern work. Next time, please pick a different airport
Feedback from N17EE
[12:29:25Z] - Transition is too low at 2,500 , it should be 3,500. Here’s how to calculate that you take the airport elevation which KCVG is at 894ft then you would add 2,500ft to that and get 3,394 then round up to the nearest 500 which is 3,500. Formula - Airport Elevation + 2,500 then round up to the nearest 500.
[12:31:55Z] - There’s no need for check ATIS , theres no ATIS on training server .
[12:33:48Z] - You can’t clear me to land right away. First I would need an pattern entry depending on the runways your using the best would be enter Left Downwind Runway 18L , then sequence me since there was no one to sequence then go ahead and clear me " N17EE Runway 18L cleared for the option , after the option make left traffic . As it’s easier to do Left Runways make left traffic Right Runways make right traffic to make things more easier then to assign everyone left traffic , remember who’s following whom , remembering clearances for each individual runway aswell.
[12:34:17Z] - Theres no need to tell me make an right 360 for spacing i’m not too sure why you told me to do so.
[12:38:23Z] - There’s no need to tell Mountain 6699 to fly runway heading until at or above 1500 , I was still 16nm out from the runway no need for the extra command.
[12:39:04Z] Theres no need to clear me to land again . You already cleared me to land minutes ago.
[12:40:39Z] Please allow the pilot time to tune into your frequency , no need for the on guard.
[12:46:28Z] - It’s not for you to decide for me to go around based on where I was coming from , you should tell me to go around of course if separation is lost. And I was about to click the " go around " command because visibility had changed dramatically
[12:51:28Z] When you said airport was busy expect delays you corrected it , for me .Remember that message is broadcasted to all pilots not only me if there were more in the airspace.
[12:54:32Z] - YL-TSU’s transition altitude should at been at 3,500.
[12:55:01Z] - Exit Runway was very late as I was about to exit the runway , in this case it would be best to give an " contact ground " command instead of saying exit runway which I’ve already have.
[12:55:24Z] - Good on seeing I would need to cross the runway in order to get to parking before I sent the message itself.
While this is also good , I suggest at first using the parallel runways as this what you’ll be tested on.
Summary - Theres still some stuff you can learn from this. I will link some resources below to help you understand some of theses aswell. Also if there’s low visibility then I suggest you find another airport to open up for example KAUS , KIND , KALB , and theres surely more aswell. Also trust the pilot more aswell . No need for the extra commands.
Resources
-
The Perfect ATC Test - I suggest you watch this first then go over the other resources at this will get you an good rundown of the basics.
-

-
ATC Manual 3.4 - Pattern Work / Transitions / Flight of XX - Helps you with Pattern work , transitions , and flight of xx’s as the name suggests.
-
ATC Manaul 3.5 - Exit Runway / Go Around - Helps you with exit runway and go arounds
-

One Note if you do plan for applying for IFATC then you surely need to read the whole

Ending Remarks - I hope you go through the resources above and hope your skills improve ! Have an nice rest of your day :)
