You can post hands, where you are unsure, in the forum here. Twoplustwo has a good forum for strategy. There are spezial sites for coaching, like cardrunners and deucescracked.

Here at bankrollmob there is now a poker school, you could start there. Also some poker sites have educational videos and articles, full tilt poker has this academy thing (don't bother with the challenges though, as initially they will make you play badly sometimes just in order to get the challenge points)...
You can find tons of info about playing poker by googling. All sorts of stuff like vids, columns, newsletters, etc. Also, just comming here and reading/posting at BRM helps alot, you will find that by reading sometimes your questions are answered before even asking them. Just be patient, poker isn't something that can be learned overnight, it takes lot's of time.
Well Bokkie, or "bestebelg" (nice to see a post from a countryman of mine, so I'll put my best effort in this reply),
there are indeed numerous sites where you can get poker "training" but very little of them are really good. Most of them, sadly enough, are just "posing" as a training site in order to have an "attraction point" for people to come to their site and sign up to poker sites. In other words, they are just "disguised" affiliates that want to make money on you.
There's also those that make you pay substantial amounts, for what the call "coaching", but they really are very dodgy most of them. And I really doubt they will teach you anything substantial.
If you don't have an account there yet, then get one through Bankrollmob, their affiliate conditions are great. I'm talking about FULL TILT poker.
Honestly, you should check out their Poker Academy, which has a massive volume of video's and other stuff, training and teaching you really "hands-on". And the advice you'll get is that of the very best pro players around ! There's even a challenge to go with each lesson, so you can earn credits for a seperate "Academy Store" and get nice items and touney tokens. This way, you not only get a lesson about numerous good subjects, but you can test yourself in the quizzes (if you score well on those, you get a place in a 2500$ freeroll) about each lesson and then take the challenges and apply what you learned in real play.
And if you want some REAL PERSONAL advice about how you play now and how you can imporve your game, I'm offering my help. Since we're both "Nederlandstalig" and not far away from eachother, I can rally help you get much steps further in your game. I have the experience !
Think it over, my offer stands But even then, go for the Full Tilt Academy too. It's a GREAT way to learn !
