The large format cameras are a lot easier to learn to use well than 35mm equipment in part because the big cameras lack a lot of the automation found on 35mm cameras which greatly increases their complexity and steepens the learning curve. And because large format cameras aren't as versatile as 35mm gear, the big cameras have fewer options for you to deal with. But, it would be expensive to learn how to shoot pictures with large format if composition, focusing, and exposure determination are still mysteries to you. So you definitely don't want to learn how to take photos on the large camera. Use the 35mm camera until you get well past the beginners level.
Many people are afraid of all the lens movements that the large format camera is capable of.
Using the lens movements can be difficult to learn at first if you are photographing products like cereal boxes where the shape must be perfect. But, it is not nearly as difficult when your subject is natural landscapes. Generally, I just use a little tilt in the range of 1-6 degrees to get foreground and background sharp. Sometimes a little swing is necessary like when photographing along a cliff at an oblique angle and sometimes a combination of the two is needed. When photographing trees, I may have to raise the front of the lens a bit so I can shoot parallel to the ground to keep the trees from leaning into the middle.
