You should watch some YouTube tutorials to help you practice. I also suggest hopping into Solo, and repeatedly doing Take-Off’s and short finals at your favorite airport!

Practice, practice, practice. There’s no single piece of advice that will magically make you a good pilot. It took me months to properly stick a landing in the 737. That said, here are some tips that can help:

Takeoffs:

  • Know the runway heading and constantly monitor it to stay aligned.
  • Maintain a good angle of attack (AOA) and carefully monitor your vertical speed (VS).
  • Be familiar with your V-speeds and flap schedule.

Landings:

  • Practice in solo mode by doing as many approaches as possible.
  • Learn the aircraft and how it behaves—when to flare, when to go to idle, and how to maintain the centerline on approach. (There’s no perfect way to do this, so focus on consistency.)

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: if you practice, put in the work, and dedicate the time, you will get better. Everyone starts somewhere. Welcome to the community!

Keeping your device smooth and still is key, pretend it’s a real yoke, and just like what @Humanguy said, practice, practice, practice!

Practice makes perfect, do a lot of approaches on solo and maybe also watch a YouTube video and see how they land and learn from that.

Welcome to the community Cezanne_Manalo1 !

For practicing short finals in Solo, as in:

note that some aircraft start with a more stable setup than others.

If you choose an aircraft that has a relatively unstable spawning condition, you might spend too much effort fighting for immediate stability rather than mastering the essentials of landing.

I don’t have a list for which aircraft are more preferrable than others for starting short final in solo. But when practicing to get the basics of landings, just select a different aircraft type if the one you choose seems to sink too fast or the nose drops right after spawning.

Also, along the lines of:

It can help to “mirror” someone else doing the task. Dan’s video from 4 years ago is a really good one:
