Prob something to fill the gap between a driver and a 5i.
Some type of combination between 3w, 5w, hybrids or longer irons. All depends on your personal preference.

3W/5W or 3H to gap between driver and 5 iron.
And Wedges. Most players go from PW (47ish usually) to GW (50-52), SW (54-56), and LW (58-60).
What’s your AW loft? You want to have solid gapping throughout the bag especially between your wedges so you aren’t having to take so many half or 3/4 swings.

For a beginner, that's all you need.
Later, add fairway metals and maybe an extra higher lofted wedge like a 56 degree.
I only use my 56 around the green.. I never hit full approach shots with it because I just can't hit that club full for some reason. I just chip with it when I need extra loft. I use a 50-52 degree out of the sand.

I'd add a 7 wood so you can bump it out from the trees and rough where you'll be spending the majority of your time for the next 6 months.

Definitely a 56 degree wedge.

PW is 43 and AW is 49

Need to add at least another wedge for sand/lob shots, 54-58* and a 5 or 7W

20° wood (may be labeled as a 7w or even 5w)
54° or 56° wedge with 10° or more bounce
That’s all I would add to start.
