I also struggled with face ID for quite a while. As has been pointed out by 
others on this list, the phone must be about a foot away from your face. If you 
aren’t sure how one foot feels, have someone move your hand to the right place 
while you are holding the phone. As silly as this may sound, I also found it  
helpful to eliminate as many variables as  possible.    I chose one chair and 
sat there  to practice. It helped me  somehow with the placement of my  arm. 
For a couple of weeks I even used that chair whenever I needed to use face ID. 
Now it doesn’t matter where I amp; I get it right about 80% of the time if not, 
only a small change is  necessary and I get it the second 6ime around. HTH

I also have issues with t. 

I got person at the Apple store to set it up for me, but I struggle to get it 
to work, meaning, it comes and goes.

What usually works for me most of the time is to hold the phone in my left hand 
and put my left arm on my leg while still holding the phone. I can get face ID 
working very consistantly this way. Good luck.
