I've seen alot of students try and fight the crab caused by the wind..crab is the tendency of the plane to slip into the wind..in other words the airplane is flying a straight course..but the nose is turned into the direction of the wind, or flying sideways.
Don't fight this, work with it, the airplane will still fly where you want it to. You'll need more throttle into the wind and less throttle downwind...on crosswind landings line up on the up wind side of the runway.and let the crosswind "push" you to center.
The biggest danger of flying in a cross wind with a high wing is the tendency of the wind to get under the wing on taxi or roll out and flip the aircraft over ..be ready on the ailerons..and push the stick into the wind to keep the wing down..
