(Try to sign up again later; it appears that the web interface isn't
working at the moment.  You'll receive replies to your own messages, but
you're missing out on the other messages addressed to the general tutor
list.)

Which ones have you tried?  I like Alan Gauld's tutorial a lot:

    http://www.crosswinds.net/~agauld/

and the ones linked up here:

    http://python.org/doc/Intros.html

are all very good.  Go for the "Non Programmers" section, and see if
they're slightly more moist and chewy.

If you have questions about Python, feel free to ask us.  It's a quiet
weekend.
