Ubuntu is a good Linux distro to start. It has many basic applications. By then, you will learn some basic terminal commands as you install programs or change some permissions,ownership, settings, etc.

Kubuntu is running a KDE environment. Standard Ubuntu uses Gnome environment. Same functions but different GUI looks.

Underneath they are the same. The main difference is the GUI and different applications installed by default.

I also advise sticking to a form of Ubuntu. Not because I consider it the best, or even the easiest to use, but because it has a huge wealth of documentation and guides.
