Blender Guru's beginner tutorial series for Blender 4.0, the well-known donut tutorial. It walks a complete newcomer through modeling, shading, lighting and rendering a 3D scene.

HN people give it as the classic, go-to starting point for learning Blender and 3D modeling, with the caveat to use a current version.

There are very good free and open tutorials for Blender. Just make sure you use a current one since the development speed was extremely high in the last years and controls changed here and there. One of the most famous is probably the donut one and I would wholeheartedly recommend it: ▶ this video
