Is there such a thing as obtaining a list of all of the HTML Tags that there are to begin learning them?

MstrBob pointed you to the list and I'll just add one thing. Forget any tag that seems to deal purely with how something looks on the page and concentrate on the ones that deal with what the content means. E.g. forget <b> and <i> and learn <strong> and <em> instead. It should go without saying that total ignorance of <font> is to be applauded.

Pay special attention to the Depr (Depreceated) Column. If an element is marked as such, it means it is to be avoided. These elements don't properly fit in the the goal and purpose of HTML. There are other, often better, ways to accomplish the affects of these elements.
