Single player is pretty useless past the first year for testing multi player strategy, they are almost completely different games.

In fact other than testing your initial expansion playing against the AI is probably detrimental to your multi player game.

A better way to learn is to go back over your turns to figure out what mistakes you made and what you could have done better. I always archive all the turns in multi player games so that I can refer back to them.
