Questions about Skyrim?

Ok so right now i'm level 20, what are some tips for beating Alduan the first time you face him.

I have tried killing him about 7 times. I only got him to critical damage once, but then I died by getting hit by a meteor.

The only way I could think of is switching to Vampire Lord form, but then I wont have the armor or speed to get away if I get critical damage (I have Dawnguard DLC) I cant seem to use the shout, to call that dragon that I beat and he became my ally. Plus the dragon that is suppose to help me fight him, either keeps chasing Alduans a$$ and not attacking him, or I accidently kill because they look so much alike. Tips, Hints, walkthoughs would be nice

    After he finishes his speech hit him with DragonBane.

    Did you forget to bring a Follower? You 'need' a follower to keep him occupied while you attack from the side or rear.

    If you can DragonBane him to earth quickly there won't be any meteors.

    However, to Avoid the meteors, run to the top of the hill and use magic or archery. Or when he grounds run down and attack him from behind or the side.

    You can only harm Alduan when he is grounded. He is invincible in the air.

    So keep him under attack when on the ground and every few seconds blast him with DragonBane to keep him from flying.

    Watch the compass bar for the ARROW that points to Alduan's location. That will keep you from wasting time/energy attacking the wrong dragon.
