Have you watched at least couple of the numerous tutorials posted on YouTube? Visual help is a thousand times better than dry words. That's the best advice i can give you now. If you Twitch, DasValdez is also an excellent teacher - his Boot Camp streams helped many fresh players.

Or download mechjeb and watch what it does... (also this might need to go in the question section of the forum)

@TheGuyNamedAlan Scott Manley is the best source for KSP Tutorials  he has at least 5 videos covering your problem

Good answers from everyone. KSP's definitely a "try, try and try again" game. You'll get it, eventually. When you do, you'll be kicking yourself at how simple you'll be finding it. @illectro (Scott Manley) has some lovely tutorials, and @DasValdez is amazingly interactive even when there's 700 people trying to get his attention.

Also, moving this over to Gameplay Questions!

I think almost everyone had problems with doing encounters at the beginning. I thought it was going to be my most hated part of the game... right until I realised it was all about relative velocities. Then it became really good fun.

Like others have said, Scott Manly is the one for tutorials (even the old ones still are apt as orbital mechanics don't change with version numbers heh).

This is the video that actually taught me to rendezvous and dock...
