Learn from the official developer wiki.
The wiki contains everything you need to know about Roblox scripting. There is also a cookbook that contains mini tutorials that do things such as creating a kill brick, making dance floors or killing players in a server. There are more, those are just a few. I strongly recommend to use this to learn scripting.
Learn from the official Lua site.
The language Roblox codes in is Lua. This site will have information on Lua itself, which you can use in Roblox. Do keep in mind that some things in pure Lua are removed from Roblox, for security reasons, and who knows what other reason.
Don't be reliant on YouTube videos.
You may be suggested to learn from YouTube. Think twice before doing that, though. There are YouTube videos that are very old, and contain deprecated items, or items that should not be used in new work, as they can be removed by Roblox at any time. They can also contain bad practices, which can hurt a beginner. When you watch YouTube videos, you are forced to learn at the pace of the YouTuber, which at the end of the day leaves you confused because you're not on the same knowledge level as the YouTuber. I'm not saying don't watch YouTube at all for this.
Videos are the only effective way, that's how I learnt. From PeasFactory and eppobot on youtube
I never watched videos i just made games and what i couldn't script i googled and found on the wiki and tried my best to do it then moved on.
