How to win queen endgames?

Hello.

Do you have any tips or learning resources on queen endgames? I recently encountered 2 queen endgames where I had 2 extra pawns, lost the first one, and nearly lost the second one. I found that it is usually pretty difficult to calculate defense from perpetual checks which will not lose any material.

I mean queen and pawns vs queen and pawns endgames.

If you see loose pawns with no defenders or only the king defending it, then check until you get the pawn and be careful of checks
