I'm sure all Chinese are familiar with using "word books 习字册(xí zì cè)" to memorize Chinese characters as children, and this is the most effective way to practice combining word forms with pronunciation and word meanings, and I recommend it.
I found a picture of the inside of this booklet and there are now many similar resources online that you can try out.
Often the easiest way is the most effective, and it's all in the persistence, I believe you can do it!
I also recommend that you use this method by reading out the sounds while writing, so that the sounds and the characters will be subliminally combined.
Stick with it and you will definitely find yourself improving a lot!
