There should be a lot of tutorials available online. You can certainly ask questions here, but knowledge of specific points could be limited, depending on what exactly you need. For the basics I expect we can help, and the rest depends on exactly what you're looking at.
Welcome to Linguist Forum! If you have any questions, please ask.

The learning curve for that software is a bit steep, the interface is certainly not intuitive.

This particular document is helpful without being too long. Take a look there for information on how to get started.
