what have you tried so far? Learning Linux Zorin should be similar to any Linux learning, so basically you need to answer questions on this forum, install Zorin, if you didn't already so, and play around.

Check if there is some information on their website, or if Zorin forum exists.

What kind of info are you looking for?
Here are a few pointers to get you going.
It is based on Ubuntu, so if you are having a problem you should be able to find an answer.
The package manager uses apt-get for installing software.
A few basic terminal commands are: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, sudo apt-get install (package name), sudo apt-get remove (package name).

As you probably know, Zorin has its own forum under Linux-Distributions on LQ.

NB Please backup any essential data on your computer before proceeding to install Zorin.

As has been asked above, what specific info do you require? We are shooting in the dark at the moment.
