More resources for learning basics of JavaScript

I just started learning JavaScript and it is by far more of a challenge to start understanding even the basics of this one...Can anyone recommend any resources for more practice and information (I know about MDN) but more things that cater to beginners? Thanks!

First of all, if you're not on a Treehouse track, I would suggest jumping on one. Try "Beginner JavaScript" first, and then you could move on to "Full Stack JavaScript." Take your time while studying to really analyze and understand the code and what it does.

If you want to use other sources, try buying a JS book. Reading can do very well! There are also plenty of other free resources on the web with interactive courses to learn JS. Try them all to see which one works best for you.

Whatever you do... just keep studying and learning. Eventually the information will sink in and you will be fluent in JS. It's always hard at the beginning, but practice makes perfection - so keep going!

The "tracks" might be a good idea.

They provide a logical sequence of courses for learning. Here are direct links to Andres's suggestions:
