First of all you shouldn’t be doing any of that stuff.
First 10-15 hrs is fundamental Basic Attitude Instrument Flying.
What syllabus are you using if any?
A sim or FTD is great for the basic stuff.
If you don’t know the basics you’ll never fly a decent ILS approach as you don’t learn to fly approaches by flying approaches.
You learn to fly approaches by practicing the basics.
And for the love of everything holy....you don’t “shoot” an approach you FLY an approach.
Pet peeve.
