   You'll need to get more specific. What type of skills or projects are you looking for?

   Pick a project you'd like to build, then learn the skills you need to make it. Or as you make it.

   Repeat.

   There are so many.
   Here is a great place to start - most of the project tutorials (which have been a bit thin on the ground lately) feature solid basic techniques alongside the more advanced stuff.
   If you want just one, then it's a tough pick but the North Bennett Street Toolbox slightly has the edge on Chris Gochnour's hand tool chimney cabinet.

   On Youtube, Stumpy Nubs is good for technique and tool tips but has become a bit boring of late. Rex Krueger really goes into basics in a big way, Rob Cosman too and for a bit of light relief and more home-style projects, Bourbon Moth is worth a watch.
   No list of the greats would be complete with the love-it-or-hate-it New Yankee Workshop which introduced most of the woodworkers over 50 to the craft. This was what there was before youTube was a Thing and you can now watch all the episodes free. https://www.newyankee.com/

   Pick a project that interests you. Then YouTube all the way. I’ve learned everything there.

   My biggest learning came from watching Paul Sellers. He has lots of great stuff on YouTube and on the free portion of his website.

   You are not very specific about the skills you want to learn. This is mostly a furniture building site. If you are interested more in being a handyman around the house to help your folks give Fine Homebuilding a try.

    I'm pretty sure he figured it out by now...
