No, "sie" means she in singular and they in plural. Capital "Sie" means you in formal way. "Es" is used as a neutral pronoun in german.

When it is "Sie" then the meaning you with respect and if it is "sie" then the meaning is she or they. So it would be "Sie sind" and "sie ist" or "sie sind" here the meaning of "sie sind" indicates they are and "Sie sind indicates you are" with respect

Will it be easy to master German pronunciation?
Yes. It is a language not a rocket science. If enough practice is done you can master it but obviously it is not your mother tongue so the accent will be a bit different.
