This is the materials kit I started with in the spring. Great quality materials. Full spools of thread and wire, "kit packs" of some things which are basically half a retail pack. You'll run out of hooks far before you run out of anything else. Booklet has patterns for some classic flies to get you familiar with the basics. https://www.amazon.com/Hareline-Fly-Tying-Material-Kit/dp/B01MG1K933.
I also purchased a Hareline tools and vice kit which was pretty decent, but I did replace the vice after a few months. Still use all the other tools though. Make sure you get the deluxe kit which has a "hair stacker". Any fly that uses elk or deer hair looks a lot better if you align the tips.
For patterns I've been going to the Orvis website. Huge variety and beautifully shot videos. Using the materials kit as a base I pick up a few new materials every couple weeks and learn to tie new patterns. https://howtoflyfish.orvis.com/fly-tying-videos. There are some great books out there as well. But I find following these videos much easier. The presenter is really good for showing you how to measure things to keep the proportions correct.
Good luck!
