If you are not set on a Windows computer, all Apple computers come with a built-in screen reader called voiceover. I have found that voiceover is much easier to learn, at least it was for me. It seems to be more intuitive than JAWS. In high school I was taught how to use JAWS but it didn't really stick and I was very slow and limited with it. I think it really is a person by person basis though. I found quite a few YouTube videos that were helpful when deciding whether or not to switch from jaws to voice over.
