For your face you should splash it with warm water or have a hot shower, this opens the pores and reduces redness afterwards, then aplly the foam or soap or whatever you use making sure there is a nice lather. Then you start shaving going with the grain of the hair I.e down rather than up, again this reduces redness. Make sure you only shave the same spot once or twice or it will get iritated. The rest is just practice.
For your pubes its basically the same but make sure any long pubes like longer than 5 mm should be trimmed down then shave like you nornally would being careful not to cut yourself.

If you do cut yourself dont worry its not the end of the world just put a small bit of tissue on it and apply so it stopps bleeding.

I agree with the post above, and shaving your face is something which you should get help with your first time. If you cannot get help, then the following video can give you guidance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixM10qw_wTQ. My strong suggestion is that you try to find a male relative, friend, or trusted adult who can help you because shaving is one of those things that are hard to explain and needs to be done in person.

As for pubes, I would invest in a body hair groomer or even a beard trimmer to keep your pubes in control.

Shaving your ass crack is going to be similar to your face. Once you learn how to shave your face without problems, then use the same methods for your butt area.

for all of them you have to make sure the skin is taught. Pull it away from where you are shaving and make long, smooth strokes

One thing I'd add, is a good quality moisturizing gel will work best. You don't need very much either, small dab it'll lather up. And as you get more used to shaving your pubes etc if you do, I've found just wet shaving with a clean fresh razor does fine in the shower.

I taught myself, really not hard, pun intended.

just use shaving cream and razor, best use a regular razor not a battery operated one because some say it causes patchiness and doesn't cut the hair in the direction you want it to grow. But if your shaving for the first time make sure you trim your hair first. I don't have to worry about shaving my face too much because i have a much lighter hair color. Also try not to shave in the same place too much (for pubes ;3) and the first time you might get red spots and shit but it's normal the first few times, and only shave around once every few days, Hair grows up through the skin and when shaving this may cause the hair to be pushed and it may grow under the skin, the skin will start to rise up and you can easily cut yourself this way. If that's not how it works idk but that's my knowledge of it and works pretty well

Face I just use a shave cream and a razor. My dad taught me to shave against the grain. I have trimmed my pubes a few times and used clippers. Just plug them in and go. But I like natural better, so I try not to trim often. Every time I have done it, I regret it. I have never shaved or trimmed anywhere on my butt.

I was never taught, I just learned.
Use shaving foam, a nice sharp razor (if you're prone to getting ingrown hairs usually, just use two blades/ three blades).
Wash your face beforehand, with warm water. Maybe a face wash?
You can dry after this, but it doesn't really matter.
Fill up your sink with water-warm.
Put on the foam on your face, then, with a nice, long, smooth stroke, take out the hair and the shaving foam. Tap it in the sink Repeat till done.
