YouTube has a wide variety of videos on rudiments and beginning lessons like doing full rebounds on snare, helpful for hearing what they should sound like (they almost always speed up with them tho). Watch your grips and use those fingers to get a rocking motion. Important to learn to control your rebounds evenly with both hands on a variety of soft and hard surfaces (ie toms and cymbals if your on a kit).

The more important part for starting out is your hand/arm/leg coordination and ultimately independance. If you get your sticking down, and your arms and legs coordinated then independant of each other, it wont really matter how your setup is. This is probably a ways away from where your at, however, so don't worry too much and just keep playing in whatever way you can and developing good habits and skills.

Sounds like you need an extra finger
