The power of punctuation is better explained by examples. Then you need some general rules. Above all, you need exercises!
The Purdue University website has a good menu to cover the punctuation you need to know.
If you find that too much, you may wish to do a quick quiz instead.
In the middle of your writing, you may need to consult a guide about specific punctuation marks. This one is quite comprehensive. This one is faster and has exercises.
A quick cheat-sheet to have near you while you write could be this Oxford site.
Last, but not least...
Beware the use of apostrophes and unnecessary quotation marks!
