How do I make a surface GUI?

I havent attempted to make a Surface GUI, I am new to scripting and I only know how to edit some scripts, I am trying to learn how to script and its really hard.

A surfaceGui doesn't involve scripts.

Unless you want to make an interactive one, it's very simple.

A SurfaceGui is a box of text or a picture that is set upon a part.

Furthermore, here is how you make one.

First, insert a part. We're going to put the gui on this. then, go to right click>insert object>SurfaceGui. Now, as you can see, nothing has affected the part. We can change this by right click>insert object>textLabel. You could also do textbuttion, imagelabel, or imagebutton. After doing any of these, there will be a small box of a blank picture or a white screen that says 'label' or 'button'. If it's a textlabel, it's VERY SMALL compared to the rest of the part. To fix, change the size (in the properties window) to {0,800},{0,600}. Now it fills the part fully. You can change the text, or picture id in the properties window, too.

Hope this helped!
