Dulce,
yes I have but most of the things I turn up on Google are junk. You know what I think I will give youtube a try maybe there's someone doing a tutorial there.

What if one already knows the rules? How does one learn how to play chess anyway? Are there some basic strategies or do you just...play in order to get better?

Poke around in the Novice Nook archives by Dan Heisman. You’re sure to find plenty of good advice:
