Shooting my Marlin (60) trains me for everything I need as a new shooter -- aim, posture, sight picture, trigger control, poise, but most of all, confidence -- and it does so in the most economical way possible. So, I have developed a saying: shooting a .22 rifle is how one should learn how to shoot.

You said this in another post and I have no arguments with it. A .22 rifle can be a very good way to learn to shoot. You also shoot shotgun and handgun.
Follow through, means keeping your sights aligned and on target during and after the shot. I don't think you have to keep the trigger back or release it slowly. Concentrate on the sights and the target even after the shot. If you do this you'll be able to 'call the shot' that is, tell where the shot went. This is a good thing.
You've had some training...what did they say about it?
