This topic just cam e up recently in another thread.  My suggestions were two websites called CADTUTOR and MYCADSITE.  Tutorials can also be found at the AUTODESK website.  You might also want to pick up a good book about AutoCAD.  Another option would be to take an introductory course about AutoCAD from a reputable AutoDesk reseller.  These tend to be 4 or 5 days long.

You can find videos for many subjects on YouTube.

CADTUTOR has videos but I think they are having a problem with their website today.

Start with AutoCAD 2014.  There is no rational reason to be starting with a version that is already six years old.
