Hi Pam,
YouTube has a lot of free options for tutorial videos, but if you are looking for something a little more organized there are options such as Skillshare or Linda.com. You do have to pay for these, but the videos are high quality and consistent, which is not always the case on YouTube. Skillshare also offers a section where you can upload your own projects to the class and get feedback from the teacher and others students. This is a great way to get your work out there and receive constructive criticism to make your work better.
Thanks a lot!

Usually, that kind of software offers so many options that it becomes overwhelming at first, so you should try to find a specific problem to solve and start with that.
As you solve it, a hundred different options will present themselves for you to add or enhance something else you did before. Maybe a new method to do something a little bit faster next time.
I would take the youtube approach, but ask it a specific problem, watch as many solutions as possible to it, and then go to the next problem.
