First of all congrats and the improvement and the will to learn to swim in just a couple of days! The last day you were swimming pretty good, keep up the good work.

You must lower your head more when you are not breathing and when you breathe, rest your head on your shoulder opposite the side that you breathe.

Work short distances keeping the best possible technique, as you improve, increase the swimming distances without changing your technique.

Remember the strength of the kick does not comes from just bending your knees it starts with your hip and core, and a small bend of the knee, when your leg comes up have it straight then start the kick from your core down to your toes.

When your arm goes in the water, try to glide more with your arms and do not drop your arm, when your hand enters the surface, rotate and glide it as much as you can to the front.

Make sure that when your arms enter the water you fully stretch your arms to the front before starting the pull.

Your pull is too slow, when you finish gliding and you bend your elbow to start the pull, accelerate the pull and do it strong. The faster you move the easier will be to float more.

Keep practicing a lot your kick, do kicking with and without board, vertical, even outside the water, flutter kicks.
  

Areas to work on, in general:

  • Work on one thing at the time. Focus one day on your glide, then the next day another point, like the pull, then the legs.
  • Work on your ankle flexibility, you should point your toes while kicking.
