How to perfect your place kick:

You want the valve on the ball facing the direction you want the ball to go. Once the ball is on the T place the ball forward to open up the sweet spot. Align yourself to know where your planted foot will be and step back to get ready to take the kick.

Visualise the ball going through the post and concentrate on the sweet spot. Be strong upon hitting the ball and get over the ball and don't open up and lose balance.
