Hello. Not sure why you want to avoid the pygame site for pygame tutorials? 
There are plenty to choose from. For beginner tutorials and tips I've put 
together a small list at the end of this message.

A lot of people also prefer learning from examples. The pygame package comes 
with about 8 tutorials of different types of programs. If you are on Windows 
you may not have gotten the tutorials, they come on in a separate file,
