Breaking sub-30 on 3x3

How to get an average of sub 30?

Hi there,
About 5 weeks ago I got into cubing and my average after 4 weeks was down to 33 secs. I haven't really improve at all and I think I won't until I get some really good tips on how to improve my F2L as that is what is slowing me down. My average F2L time at the moment is around 22 sec and LL 11 sec.
Hopefully someone can either give me great tips or direct me to where I can find out how to improve it.
Thanks,
Toby.

PS: PB is 21 sec.
 
It's hard to see where your what your weak points are if I don't have video of your solves. And when I averaged ~33 seconds, I didn't use CFOP, so I don't even know what me weak spots were when I was at your level. So if I have some video, maybe I can help you.
 
How to get Sub 45 ?

Hey guys so i wanted to know how i would be able to get sub-45 sec in speedcubing. I have a Dayan 5 Zhanchi , non-lubricated and unbroken.I use Fiedrich's Method for solving. I know may guys will tell to do Lubrication first.. But before lubrication and tensioning i want to know if i should pratice on feidrich's method only or choose other method's like ZZ and Roux. ?
PB on 3x3 :- 42.96 sec
Ao5 :- 52.32 sec
Ao10 :- 53.87 sec
I have Done 11 solves , all under a min.. I am not fast in doing so don't tell me that "i am not fast" .

And in advance , Thanks for Helping :)
 
I am trying to get to sub 30 and I've found that the sticky point for me is my cross and f2l. I average 6 seconds on cross and 18 seconds on f2l. Do you have any advice? I use full PLL and 2 look OLL.
