I’m not 100% sure of this, but I think on YouTube you can find some guitar lesson videos that are semi-helpful. I don’t know if there are electric guitar ones but I have seen acoustic…good luck!

yeah youtube is great for that, and personally i think learning to play guitar is waay easier on an electric one first. Cos your fingers dont need to be as strong and the neck is slimmer… thats how I started out. Acoustics you need to be more precise with.
Also yamaha music schools pretty good value for money to get you started x
