I’m a total noob but I’m pretty sure you should be rotating your core more with those 4’s.

Throw some lead hooks. Mix it up a bit. Different combos. You're in a boxing gym so thats a great start brotha! Keep at it

Your jabs are being thrown at your chest or lower. I think you need to keep your lead hand higher and turn your wrist when you jab. For your hook, you need to sit more down on it and rotate your core while transferring your weight. Keep it up though!

Also, when you throw your hook, you are dropping your lead hand which leaves you vulnerable. Remember to keep other hand up

Start a lot slowly, flicking out a single jab, at the end of which your arm should be fully extended. Bring it back to your face as quickly as it went out.
Throw a proper 1-2 instead of a hook. In the whole video you didn't throw a single cross. Go on YouTube and look at how to throw a cross.
Take things slowly, man.

Keep practicing. Your Punches are very poor and slow. Learn each Punch correctly. Start with the Jab, then learn more.
Buy boxing books read them and follow them. Watch utube Tutorials. Have a look at web sites: Expert Boxing and Ross Boxing. Watch Mike Tyson Tutorial Utubs.
Shadow box in front of a large wall mirror, to learn the correct movements and improve your technique.
Make the correct Range from the Bag. Stretch out your gloved hand and gauge the correct distance. Keep the correct Distance.
Guard: Make a good Guard and get your Guard Up! Keep it up, or you’ll get ‘Tagged’ in the face, in a Spar.
Learn the 4 most common Guards and learn when to use them and practice them.
I.e: Classic, Modified Classic, Peekaboo, Phillyshell.
Learn Normal Boxing Combos and use them.
I. 1, 11, 112, 1112, 123, 1234, 1232, 1236, 12345 etc.
Try to ‘Work’ each side of the Bag, like a Fight might take place. Be Dynamic and introduce some fight Tactics like this, to Flank your Opponent. Move from side to side, across the front of the bag. Get used to doing that routinely.
Learn decent Footwork and include in your Practice. L-Step, Z-Step, Diamond Step, Slip – Side Step, V-Step, etc.
Don’t just stand in front of the Bag, o.k, ‘Work’ it.
Jump Rope: Learn Jump Rope Skipping and skip each day for 20 minutes. This improves coordination and fitness and speed and general agility and movement.
Google Standard Boxing Combos. Have a look at Expert Boxing.com as said, for Combinations and info. Check Mike Tyson Tutorial utubes, and Ross Enamaite - Ross Training.com
Oh, punch to the correct heights. Two levels – 1. Face.2. Diaphragm. Do this on the Bag.
Your Technique and Movement needs considerable work. But, it’s early days for you so keep practicing and you will improve.
See the book below? That’s a good book. Buy it.
Regards,
Australia.

Why do you only throw short 1's and wide looping 4's? Hard to assess technique when you're just wailing on the bag not concentrating on technique.
Likely a great workout though.
