Attempting to keep an eggbeater drill square to the drilled surface is a considerable ask for someone who isn't practiced, particularly somebody on the smaller side. It's ergonomically working against you the entire time due to its length. I can buy a Black and Decker (budget brand, but it's fine for light home use) corded drill at $25 that's plenty for home use and won't be frustrating the novice user every time they want to set a point. And that one in particular hates its user specifically; keyless chucks are way better, too, for novices because of the likelihood that that chuck key is going to get lost in a move or the like. They also aren't that expensive--the aforementioned Black and Decker corded drill has one.
