I'm a little confused about the proper way to use a colon. Can you give me some tips?

Sure! The most important thing is that your punctuation should match the meaning of what you're saying. For example, if you want to say "A and B are two things," then it's best to use a semicolon because that means there is a relationship between the two things. If you just want to say "A and B" without any further explanation, then it's better to use a comma.
