There are loads of sewing books available that show you the basic stitches. You can either buy them or borrow them from a library.
There are very few colleges that offer classes where you can get an actual qualification.
If you want someone to actually show you the stitches, volunteer as a helper at the nearest residential home for the elderly. The elderly love to have visitors who will sit and talk to them.

This appears to be a fairly useful site

There are also 'Teach Yourself' and 'DK Publishing' guides (available from the library) which are easy to understand.
