This is a difficult hole with Starter equipment. You'll hardly hold the green with the second shot due to trajectory and lack of spin, and when you play shorter, the ball may stick short of the green, like glued. The area just in front of the green has such characteristic in many places.
Until you have access to good(!) equipment, look for the best place next to the green. It may be in the rough just left or right of the respective holes, potentially better than straight behind the green(?)
BTW: Is there an English term for "the area just in front of (and around) the green" which has an intermediate cut? In German, it's called "Vorgrün" - "before the green".
