How to Take a Sudoku Tutorial
Although sudoku was a popular game in Japan as early as 1986, it didn't explode on the international scene until nearly 20 years later. With sudoku websites and books cropping up everywhere, it's no wonder a record number of people are looking for ways to learn how to play or to improve their games. To address this demand, many websites have now created sudoku tutorials that cover the rules of play, strategies and variations of the game.

Tips & Warnings
Break the tutorial up into several small sessions if you feel there's too much information for you to adequately take in during one session. Not only will this give your mind a rest, but it may also increase your successes in sudoku as you're giving yourself ample time to fully comprehend the various strategies of the game.
Make sure you're working with a reputable site when taking any sudoku tutorial. You don't want to download or click on any links from a website with questionable morals. There's a possibility you could end up with some kind of virus on your computer.
