You can always fly VOR to VOR or/and VOR radials the way you described Skylar.
Then you have to tune your NAV radio to the VOR in question,and course if on VOR radial,
and so on as you go.
But, with all the nice payware popping out the last years,with FMC,ND and coupled AP with Autoland function,
it seems to be a lost art. All to many pilots jump into the heavy iron without having done the basics first these days. So I can only reccomend doing it that "old fashined" way to acchieve better undestanding on how to navigate,witout all the automation involved.
