Like fla said just take your time. You will find aspect of the longer WB easier and aspects of it more challenging.
Practice practice practice.
Go to walmart when they are slow, with the trailer, and get 4 orange cones. Make yourself a parking spot and back in and out of it. Play with the TV/TT to see how it reacts. Figure out how far you have to pull past the site to back it in easily and in one motion. All too often I see people stop to close to their spot and get in a bid, further is always easier as you can back up to the proper pivot point.
I think that this is where we have a lot of our problems.. determining the correct pivot point
I never was very good at drawing :-).. but here's a sketch... where would you guys say the correct pivot point should be, points 1, 2. 3, 4 or5?
