R wasn't the first programming language I learned, but successfully used this beginners course to get a gentle overview/tutorial on the basics nontheless. There are also full-fledged books available, like Hands-On Programming with R or R for Data Science, with the first one being more project-oriented though perhaps too much to start with. Finding resources isn't difficult, for sure, but I used those three to greater or lesser extent and figured them worth recommending. I'd be happy to help you if you're stuck or find something to be too much.
