Welcome to Max and just know, it's a journey. It will take time and dedication to get really proficient but it's a lot of fun and you'll enjoy the process.
First of all, have a good 'Subject' when you post. In the Subject of a Post say something about what you need help with. Subjects that are too general get ignored a lot. Yours would be much better if it were somehting like, "New User needs help with ways to learn Max." Sometimes people's Subject will be, "Help Me." We are all here for help so that's a terrible Subject. Get the point?
Next, I'm self-taught in Max and I started before the internet was very big. Now, your best friend is Google. There are 10s or 1000s of posts, tutorials and videos about using Max. Search and do tutorials. Do as many as you can handle each week and don't stop. I've done 1000s of them, literally.
Lastly, try finding courses on sites like Udemy. They have sales all the time and you can pick up really good tutorial courses for $10-$15 for a $75 course. Most all of them are excellent.
