This is an excellent example.

Different things will work for different people here, but at the age of very nearly 40, I cooked my first meal on my own that started with chopping an onion less than a year ago. One thing that unexpectedly made a big difference turned out to be learning how to wash my hands properly, by watching the video instructions. Knowing that, I was more confident eg handling raw meat and other ingredients, which made the whole thing much easier.
