Hey Christine!

Very simply put - Git is a version control system so that you and your teammates could work together efficiently on the same codebase. When I make a change to my code, I can upload it to a remote server where my teammates can track what changes I've made.
Github is just one of the most popular Git service providers.

A very straightforward, no BS tutorial I find useful can be found here:

It's more about how than what.

To understand what is Git and how it works, I found this video to be useful:
