                      Okay, i am absolutely a beginner, but i can do the fingering correctly and play some simple song on it. That is what I’m not convenient with, i want to be able to play every piece of music note i lay my hands on perfectly.

                      I have a fender alto sax with serial number 0920207. my elder brother bought it for me

                        very good. you must learn all the notes from low Bb to high F.
                        but not only learn the notes, become smooth and confident with each passing note. practise the 2 1/2 octave (low Bb to hi F) playing semi tones for at least an hour each day…Bb, B, C, C#, D, D#, E etc all the way to high F, then come back down.
                        each time you stop or make a mistake, go up 2 or 3 notes and continue until it goes smooth
