We all learn what we need to learn and there are always things that all of us are learning as we use this technology. You're definitely posting to the right place, as there are lots of JAWS and NVDA users out here who will be glad to give you pointers.
One way to get a sense of what you can do with both screen readers, as well as Narrator, is to enable keyboard help with your screen reader's modifier key and the number 1. That's the 1 on the row of numbers, not the 1 on the number pad. Usually, that will be insert+1, unless your modifier key is something like the caps lock. Go into this keyboard help mode when you're on a Web page and then start pressing single letter and symbol keys to hear what those keys actually do. With JAWS, press that key twice quickly to get a more detailed explanation of that key's function.
Start out by pressing single keys to hear what those keys do.
Next, play around by trying different key combinations with your screen reader's modifier key with other keys; insert+a, insert+b, etc. Then add additional modifiers to see if your screen reader uses those combinations, such as insert+shift+a, insert+ctrl+a, etc. This is what I do when I'm working with a new screen reader to get a sense of what its keyboard commands do. It's not the same as reading help files or a manual but it may give me enough of a crash course to advance just a bit from where I am. Some of the explanations that you hear might make sense, others might partially make sense and maybe some initially won't be clear at all but you'll at least get an idea of what you can do.
