The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Block
1 of 3: To practice this skill, equip your best armor and shield, then find a lone enemy with a weak one-handed weapon. Let him bang on your shield, using healing potions and spells to help you get in more practice before you have to kill him or run away.
2 of 3: Note that enemies usually won't follow you through area transition doors, so if you can find a good Block practice guy inside a dungeon or whatever, lead him to the exit door. Do your practice until you want to retreat, then quickly use the exit door to leave. You can then go do other things and come back later when you want some more Block practice.
3 of 3: Or instead of that, use a Conjuration spell to summon up a weak creature, then hit it four times with a weapon to get it to attack you. If you're careful, you probably won't need to heal before it times out and vanishes.
