watch these - there is a whole series of videos to inform and teach. There are many other vid’s out about msfs 2024 as well. But it will also depend on what version you are using and which peripherals you are using as to how you translate these into practice. - good luck.

I use a keyboard and mouse.

Do you have a controller you can plug in? It is very difficult to fly on just keyboard and mouse.

I agree with Jayne. It’s very hard to fly with keyboard and mouse. There are some very reasonable flight sticks on the market to start off with until you can afford some better equipment. Spend some time on the net looking up videos on yokes, throttle quadrants, flight sticks, pedals.

Apart of Joystick (or yoke) you will need rudder pedals to have a more realistic approach to piloting.
