Don't want to be snippy but how can someone "teach you how to shoot" w/o teaching sight alignment and proper stance? On the plus side, apparently neither were injured during the training.
Find a knowledgeable person willing to actually show you the basics and take the time to learn beyond a doubt the safety warnings about gun handling.
I've taught folks from those who've never have touched a firearm through competition shooters and it's not something you learn in an hour. As long as you learn the safe handling aspects, the rest will come with practice.
