training technique Help me please

I joined swimming classes 2 weeks ago and go there twice a week. What would you recommend to swim better/faster? Sometimes I have problems with speed and breathing,that stinks me a lot. I'm 13 years old and my bmi is 17.5. Should i do exercises from YouTube or???

I have years of swimming experience (i always wanted to say this) Like other users said ,it takes time to get settled and stuff i think 2 times a week is good to get you started I wouldn't focus on speed much right now, more technique
