In Naruto, shinobi battles last a very long time consuming lots of chakra.
Even though Naruto has a lot of chakra, he ignored the basics and started
learning high level techniques with Jiraiya. Even though this wasn't a bad
thing, he just kept learning higher levels of techniques without using the
basics, causing him to waste more chakra for high level jutsus.

Why hasn't Naruto learned how the use the bare minimum the start his jutsus?

Know that if he did that, he wouldn't have had to rely on the Kyuubi's power
and would probably be able the do rasen shuriken one more time, or at least
have some chakra left over for retreating or finishing off the opponent.

Why didn't Naruto learn the basics of chakra control?


Given that Naruto is a slow learner and the possibility of Kyuubi's
interference, Jiraiya realised it would take him a long time to learn the
chakra control, and decided that the benefit gained from it is not worth the
time spent. Since Naruto has abundant chakra reserves, Jiraiya decided that
learning how to tap it is of higher priority than chakra control.

Moreover, many of the times when Naruto learned a new technique (Frog
Summoning, Rasengan, Rasenshuriken, Sage Mode, Kyuubi chakra mode), he had to
do it within some time limit, so he could not take his own sweet time learning
chakra control, and hence, sticked to his original learning method. It is
possible that Jiraiya did teach Naruto some chakra control during the time
they travelled together, but there is not enough evidence of this happening.

Note that when Naruto began training with Ebisu during the one month training
break before the Chunin exam finals, Ebisu did tell him to learn to use his
chakra more efficiently. However, after Jiraiya took over his training, he
asked Naruto to focus on power rather than control, since he felt that style
suited Naruto better.

By the time he is likely a jounin by _The Last: Naruto the Movie_ 2 years
after the Kaguya fight, he can form a rasen shuriken with a single hand. His
control was so great and progressed so much during the war, he was able to
share chakra with everyone. Basically, the Kyuubi was in the way and when he
was no longer in the way, his abilities shot up and his control became so much
greater because he had to train in 'higher gravity'.

Conclusion, he was constantly improving his control, but the Kyuubi was
interfering throughout most of his life so he had to gain more control than
the average person to make up for it. When he no longer had interference, it
was no longer a problem.
