Hold the cube with one color as the front face
Learn the notation: R, L, U, D, F, B
Learn prime moves as counterclockwise turns
Learn double moves as 180-degree turns
Solve the white cross
Solve the white corners
Solve the middle layer edges
Solve the yellow cross
Orient the yellow corners
Permute the yellow corners
Permute the yellow edges
Practice the algorithms repeatedly
Keep the cube oriented the same way while solving
Check each layer before moving to the next
Repeat until you can solve it smoothly
