Unfortunately, that isn’t the way to learn. I’ve given CPR courses and done CPR on pts.

From the Journal of Advanced Nursing –

“The findings of the research reflect similar results to previous research undertaken and discussed in the literature review, suggesting that retention of skills and knowledge quickly deteriorates if not used or updated regularly. Therefore this research supports the importance of CPR refresher courses on a regular basis.”

So if nurses have trouble with retention, for sure laymen will!

OTOH, you can ask specific questions & I’ll try to answer them.
