How can I find help for new Ubuntu users?
I've just started using Lubuntu 13.10. It's the first time I've ever used Linux.
Can any of you send me a tutorial-video for new users or explain the basics to me?

The manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience.
Download the Spanish language version of Getting Started with Ubuntu 13.10, Primeros pasos con Ubuntu 13.10 (155 pages, PDF).
Download the English language version of Getting Started with Ubuntu 14.04.

There is a slick on-line set of videos you can access that replace the downloadable PDF's that seem to be missing for Ubuntu 18.04.
Rather than a name such as Ubuntu 14.04 or Ubuntu 16.04 that are referenced in Karel's Answer, the videos simply refer to Ubuntu Stable. This could imply 14.04 and 16.04 which are not EOL (End of Life). However when you look at the video for "Switching Tasks" it appears to be geared towards Ubuntu 18.04 under Gnome Interface.
There are three videos provided:
- Launch Applications
- Switching Tasks
- Use Windows and Workspaces
Additionally, there are links to readable topics (with lots of images and/or animations) for common tasks:
- Browse the web
- Change the date, time and timezone
- Change the wallpaper
- Connect to online accounts
- Use the system search
- Use windows and workspaces
- Get online
- Launch applications
- Switch tasks
