I am going to try to become proficient in VBA in the next two weeks. Is there a good, easy-to-follow tutorial? Any other tips would be great.

Maybe this is just me, but I never learn anything by just following a tutorial. I always learn the most by having a project in mind and doing the footwork to figure out how to make the thing do what I want.

Maybe someone else will have a good tutorial for you, I would suggest just googling "vba tutorial" and taking the first relevant link.

What I have done for the last few languages I learned, while I would not consider myself above intermediate-level in any of them, is to work through a couple online tutorials to learn functions and syntax, then go find a project and make something real. Actually think of something that will be useful to you or someone else, and write that code. When it is a real project, not just something you are doing to learn the language, it is so much easier to keep your nose to the grindstone and get things done.
