NOTE : Quality lenes are going to hurt your pocket so make sure which lens to buy , keep experimenting with the 18-55 Kit lens till you understand the basics and what is your desired focal length then you can start looking at prime macro lenses.

Youtube is filled with videos to teach you photography.
