Sorry, but I have to say your question is vague and too generic. I'd have to write 20 pages explaining how to make maps. So, what do you want to learn first?
Plus, I leaned map making by this tutorial: http://wiki.srb2.org/wiki/SRB2_Doom_Builder_Tutorial. This was enough to get stated, for me.
I was you, I wouldn't say that. Why do we have a Wiki then?

The entire idea of tutorials is to learn the basics. After you've got yourself on your feet, you need to know the basics really, really well for when you're making the level itself.
That said, there seems to be this mentality from new mappers that they're going to learn how to map instantly and start cranking out juggernauts like ERZ2. After that ambition goes away, that's usually what separates the men from the n00bs.

Just do what I did when I started making maps: scrap the tutorials! Whatever it is you want to do, find an official map where it is. If you havn't already, make a copy of srb2.srb and rename it as a .wad file. Open up that file, find the map where your... thing, whatever it is... exists, load it up, find it by any means necessary, and try to adapt it to your purposes. I did it, and in five minutes I had never-before-used (for me) linedef executors, special FOFs, and anything else that I would need up and running.

You can open up any (or most) kind of file as long as it contains WAD file information. I've opened even .txt files.

I had used this trick often, too.
But had often checked the wiki.
Sometimes I used experimental maps to check the function XYZ (which means a function out of many)
