You'll figure it out. The oven will work the same and the
stove will be a little slow to change temperature, but
otherwise, heat is heat.

To heat the cooktop burners up quickly, turn them to high
for 10-30 seconds to start, then turn them back to medium
or medium-high or whatever you're aiming for. You'll catch
the temperature in the middle of the rise to high, which
was steeper to start.
