Looking for some coaching/guidance as a new player

Hey everyone, I’m looking for someone who might be down to look over a couple of my VODs. I’ve put a lot of time into my mechanics and I'm at the point where I don't feel like I'm dying because my aim is bad, but because I’m making poor decisions that I just don't know how to fix yet. I’m honestly tired of hearing 'just play games' because I want to actually understand the logic behind the game.

I’m really just trying to find someone who can help me understand the why behind my deaths, as I need help spotting the patterns in my decision-making that I'm currently too inexperienced to see. I want to move away from just guessing what the right play is and start actually diagnosing my own rounds so I can play with more purpose.

For context, I feel I have a solid mechanical base (I'm hitting 25–27/30 on medium bots while strafing between spawns, I know that's a bit of a controlled environment, but it's something), but I feel like I'm still at square one regarding everything else. I’m not looking for any shortcuts, just someone who can help me break down the logic of the game so I can stop guessing. If anyone is down to chat or look at a clip, let me know!

For VODs I'm not really sure what games to send so if you'll send a DM I'll just send a friend request to you so you can just watch replays at your convenience.

Here's my tracker for reference:

Looking for coaching/guidance as a new player.

Hey everyone,

Currently a new player to Valorant and am looking for someone that could provide some structured coaching.

Some background:

I'm effectively completely new to shooter games, the last time I played a shooter game was roughly 2010 or so. Valorant really interests me as a game as someone who has a decent amount of time in MOBAs.

I'm a former college golfer, so it was drilled into my head from a young age that the way of improving/learning something is to have structured and purposeful practice and I'm looking to implement that type of structure into learning Valorant so I can prevent myself from developing bad habits early on.

If you're a coach or experienced player that is willing to work with someone more or less from scratch with a learning style oriented around structure and growth, I'd love to work with you!

Thanks in advance!
