+### Hints And Tips For New Neovimmers
+
+Neovim is a very rich and powerful environment, but it can also feel a bit
+intimidating for new users trying to find their way around, especially if
+they're coming from other environments like Visual Studio Code or a traditional
+IDE.
+
+There's no way this README can provide you with everything you need to know, but
+here are a few tips so you can learn how to learn.
+
+### Use The Help, Luke!
+
+Neovim's help system is incredibly thorough and extensive. You should really
+take a moment to get comfortable navigating through help topics, going back and
+forth, navigating the menus, etc. This won't just help you read the help, it
+will empower you in the rest of your Neovim journey.
+
+You can double click on a topic to drill down, and hit Ctrl-o (Hold down the
+Control key and the 'o' key) to go back.
+
+Read the first page you get when you run :help carefully. it will serve you
+well.
+
+You can also get help on a particular thing by typing ":help <topic>".
+
+Like, let's say we want to learn more about folding, just type ":help folding".
+
+### To The Telescope!
+
+One of the more powerful features you get by installing this project is the
+brilliant Telescope plugin co-written by @tjdevries.
+
+Take a minute to browse through ":help telescope" and get a sense for all the
+amazing superpowers you've gained.
+
+In particular, there are two Telescope features that are incredible for helping
+you understand how to do a particular thing or how to configure a particular
+feature.
+
+If you're not sure what to look for, try ":Telescope help_tags". Let's say we
+want to configure Neovim to automatically word wrap. We might type ":Telescope
+help_tags" and then type w, r, a, p. Notice how the list of results changes with
+each new letter you type? When you're done you've got a screen full of topics
+involving word wrap.
+
+Another common question is "What keys do I hit to make a thing happen?". To get
+an answer, one way is to use ":Telescope keymaps". You'll get the same list of
+results that changes to adapt with each new key you press.
+
+With these hints in mind you should be in good shape to get learning. Remember,
+you are on a journey of discovery here, adapting your programming environment to
+your needs. It will take effort, but the rewards are worth it! :)
