I'm a begginer at chess. I know the rules,l know basic opening moves and simple chess things really. I want to get better with every aspect of the game.

But l don't know the fundamentals of the game. l want to learn them.

How to start learing chess from the begining? 

Thank you in advance.

I would just start with the lessons, I have seen some lessons that teach fundamentals of it and it should help.

I have been playing for a while and I still learn things from the beginning lessons

John Bartholomew's YouTube channel has an entire video series on chess fundamentals. That's a good place to start.
