I learned by listening to podcasts and watching a few YouTube channels.

Check out Tabletop Champions or The Adventures Zone as a starting place for podcasts. Critical Role is the gold standard, but can set unrealistic expectations for those new to the hobby because everyone there is a trained voice actor.

For YouTube channels, check out The Dungeon Dudes, Taking 20, Zee Bashew's Animated Spellbook series, or XP to Level 3.

Oh definitely, I'm the same way. Hearing it actually in use with the real play podcasts helped me though. Even if you don't follow the rules, they're still fun to listen to. The Adventures Zone tends to play a bit of Calvinball with the rules anyway.
