https://www.chess.com/chessmentor/view_course?id=364 is a free Chess Mentor course on the basics of openings. https://www.chess.com/chessmentor/view_course?id=444 is an intermediate course, also free.

There are plenty of books and videos which cover the material too. If you want someone to provide

individual instruction, there are plenty of coaches you can hire.
