HI @Tarkin,

there are lots of videos and tutorials online.
http://grasshopperdocs.com/ is also a good source if you want to have an overview of the native components and many plug ins.

Don’t learn like that, knowing the components:

Learn this way, by a purpose:

If you learn the problems before the solutions, you will be able to understand new components by yourself.

Primer also @Tarkin: https://www.modelab.is/grasshopper-primer
Personally I prefer this to video tutorials, it seems to stick in the brain better (well mine, anyway).
