I am a beginner and having lots of trouble with making a simple first-person 3d controller could someone help me with this??? I am on version 2019.2.3f1 I also need it to use physics

Well the simplest way would be to use the CharacterController. You then just call its Move or SimpleMove, and transform.Rotate methods every Update based on user input. You can just child your camera to your player GameObject. Though this isn’t physics based movement.
For physics movement though you generally do so through adding forces. You take input in Update and apply the forces in FixedUpdate. This can be a lot more tricky to get to behave just right, though the motion looks more realistic for something like a ball rolling. You also have to deal with the object possibly knocking or falling on its side, getting pushed by other physics objects, or otherwise moving in ways the player may not expect based on their inputs. You’d probably want to use a separate camera GameObject using a camera follow script rather than making it a child, unless you want the camera to flip upside down if a physics force flips the player upside down.

I mean making something from scratch the playercontroller is pretty bad

Did you not see the second half of my comment?
This script can help you. You can walk, run, jump, crouch and have footsteps.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE A 3RD PERSON CONTROLLER?
you just use the same script but move the camera behind it a bit

Use or dissect the Starter Assets or one of the many player controller tutorials on the internet to begin learning.
I recommend the Kinematic Character Controller as a robust controller, though modifying it requires intermediate to advanced knowledge.
