I do gLua instead of Lua but for me I tend to look at documentation, it really helps imo.

I'm not sure if you play Garry's Mod, but it can be fun to experiment and try learning Lua there since it's practical and you can see instant results. I would also suggest experimenting with Love2D.

+1 for this as the documentation for gmod on its wiki is pretty thorough and has several great guides that help you understand the syntax and the structure of the language. It also helps that since gmod is a game you have a better visual representation of the changes you're making so you can wrap your head around it easier.
