Good questions
Before you begin.
Is puppy biting normal?
Mouthing is normal. Hard or frantic biting is worth discussing with a trainer, who can teach what to chew instead.
Should I see a vet first?
If a behavior is sudden or new, yes. Pain and illness can change how a puppy acts.
What methods are worth looking for?
Reward-based teaching, gradual exposure and patience. Be wary of any approach that relies on fear.
Can coaching help a timid puppy?
Often, yes. Slow, positive introductions to new sounds and people build confidence over time.
