Like anything it's important to know what your learning style is. Some people can take a class and others need more one-on-one. The best thing I ever did was take a golf class offered at a local community college. It was cheap, I needed a PhyEd credit for my degree I was taking at night school, but it broke everything down to get you started. I was in a class of about 15 people but still got some individual attention. I had been playing prior to that with lessons from friends and family and I could never break 100. After the class I was usually in the 90's and taking some more focused one-on-one time with a pro, I usually play in the 80's and have broke 70 a couple of times.
Just be sure to understand why you are playing and what your goals are. Have fun and don't expect to play like Tiger.
