An alternative way to start if you want hands on:  
In intellij do the kotlin koans (install the edutools plugin). As you know java, if you are stuck, try writing java code and use the convert to kotlin code function.

You can also do the koans online with [https://try.kotlinlang.org](https://try.kotlinlang.org)
