And work with a sand wedge or some other wedge to develop a consistent chipping stroke.

that is what ended up helping me. I am still not good and a beginner, but short chips with minimal back swing helped me develop a smoother backswing and keeping my head down, which helped me translate to the 7/6/5 iron and then after some tips about moving the ball forward (and then committing to the swing) I was able to start actually hitting my fairwood and Driver generally straight within the last few weeks. Still need to work on putting but getting (relatively) decent at chipping first helped me a bunch.

For beginners, I would suggest working on your putting stroke first. Then use that putting stroke for chip shots around the green. Experiment with different clubs and different ball placement (forward or toward back foot) and learn where shots tend to land and how far they tend to roll with each club
