Any tips on how to program an ARDUINO for beginners?
Well in his defence, he was looking for tips... I guess the tutorials may help you learn some in the long term 
This is my best tip for Beginners with Arduino. Try to start with the the Built-In examples they were written with beginners in mind..... if you are just starting with components... well many companies sell starter kitsstarter kits that bring the necessary components to try most many of the examples.
