After procedural programming you will need to get familiar with Object Oriented programming to get the most out of Laravel.
It is best if you follow a project based tutorial for example in udemy or youtube, that way those concepts will make more sense to you while you wrap your head around PHP OOP, look for Traversy media on youtube he has lots of project based tutorials and that is how i got started with Laravel by doing projects. The fundamentals are important, you dont need to learn the A to Z in OOP, just need to know a couple of key concepts and pick up the rest as you build them. Also check Laracasts which has lots of free tutorials, start with basic CRUD: create, read, update, delete applications, also try to create a github repo of your projects if you need help on some parts of the web application so it is easier to check the code
