Doing a PCA HPDE in a few weeks with instructors so that will be a good opportunity.
You may want to consider installing a throttle riser and extension. The riser will lift the thorttle pedal to be higher so its more even with the brake pedal. The throttle extension makes the throttle pedal bigger so its easier to reach with your heel or the side of your foot.

And yes, working with an instructor will help improve more than just your heel and toe technique!
