Eagle is a nice program.  For a beginner though you may want to check out 
Easy-PC CAD.  Email/Skype me directly if you'd like to check it out.  For 
that program I have a bunch of items for your library.  Also in Skype we can 
share Desktops.  I can then give you some one-on-one tutoring and show you 
how the things work.

Sorry to say I'm not as proficient in Eagle CAD.  I found it to be a bit 
tough in the learning curve.  Also I found that everything I wanted to do 
needed a script.  Most everything in Easy-PC is just a click.  Don't get me 
wrong, it's not the greatest program out there.  But it is one of the 
simplest.  It also has a nice feature that you can draw a PCB design and 
then produce a Schematic.  Most programs require you to first have a 
schematic and don't allow you to freehand a design.
