The best way for beginner to learn chords is to ignore the complex chords like barre chord and 7s and go with simple shapes of Major and Minors. The most important part of learning chords is not to remember them but to learn switching them.

Keep adding notes of the chord one by one and then play all the strings together. By this you will understand which string is getting muted and how well you need to hold your finger which gives you the disturbance.

Start with the Open Chords, slowly try to combine 2 of them, then increase gradually the number of chords in the combination. Firstly 2 chords, then 3 chord rythm, then 4 chord etc. and so on.
