honestly, if you want to get good results quickly, you should try to scrounge some cash for a teacher. But there are some things you can focus on.

try to keep your throat open and don't clench, sing from your diaphragm. Stay hydrated, drink water on the regular, it makes a huge difference when you have a healthy instrument to work with.
Also something that helps is lubricating your throat before you sing. Not water, i'm talking pineapple juice, or a spoonful of olive oil or honey.

in school i was part of our Elite Choir, im still in it but im the conductor. Anyways Our teacher told us to (if you have a piano) make the lowest key you can sing, and then the hight key you can sing. After a few practices of singing between those keys go further and you will get better. :)

-Work on raising your soft palate. When you yawn, notice how the roof of your mouth rises. This is the kind of sensation you want to feel when singing to create an open sound.

-When you breathe in, your stomach should noticeably expand. When you sing, it should slowly get smaller.

-Look at the muscles in your neck when you sing. They shouldn't move up and down very much. If they do, you're forcing the sound.

Hope these help!!
:)
