Good luck -- my only advice is divide and conquer. Start with something, perhaps the LINQ, and figure out what it does so you understand how the data is being mapped/reduced/filtered. Work your way out, figuring out what each method/property is doing, until you hit the data binding, which is where you can start tying together how the code-behind is interacting with the UI. Along the way, whenever you see something about C# that you don't understand, look it up, which might involve a quick read of how generics and type inference works, which is the basis of LINQ, and some basics of XAML data binding.

[edit]My reason for starting with the code rather than a tutorial is that you will probably encounter specific stuff in the code that no tutorial will decently cover, so the code is, ironically, your best tutorial.[/edit]
