If you're not confident with people yet, try something simpler like a still-life. You could also try something like a doll or a mannequin. What I find makes the biggest difference is if you're drawing something you're interested in. A drawing of your favorite ring will always turn out better than a lamp you forced yourself to draw even though you hate it.

The crazy thing is that you'll notice an improvement no matter what subject you look at. I'd recommend looking at a doll or mannequin with joints so you can see the simple shapes of the body, then apply that to the real thing. :) If you look at Bridgman's or Hogarth's books, they talk about it a lot. This is kind of what I mean - just very general shapes, don't worry about details yet. Drawing an eye perfectly doesn't mean much if your figure looks like a flounder.
