You're poor and spent money on tarot cards instead of books for school? Wow, you're dumb.

I looked at the Psychic Tarot, and I think they will do just fine for learning. They have all the Major Arcana, and the non-court cards from the Minor Arcana. Since the missing cards are the "court" cards (which are famously hard for the beginner to interpret) I think you can learn to do readings easily using these cards. If a book came with the deck. read it but most people find the books that come with decks to be pretty worthless so if it is confusing you, don't bother. Use whatever is your best means of memorization (mine was to write the cards' meanings down in a notebook) and do small, simple spreads to start, 1-3 cards at most. Since you have access to the internet, go to learntarot.com and read additional meanings for the cards there. There is also a wealth of information at aeclectic.com. After a while you may want to get another deck, but for now these should be fine. Enjoy your journey!

Any cards are good to do reading and to "work with people" (not sure what you mean by that). You can even do readings with simple playing cards, you will just need to know how to interpret them. The priority when you chose a deck, is to make sure the pictures "speak" to you, meaning that you will respond to each illustration in an emotional way. Try first to get familiar with your deck by playing with it, by becoming familiar with each cards. Then, slowly, you can start to do small spreads and see how it goes. Enjoy!

The Crowley deck! The book of Thoth by Alister Crowley is the book you want to have. The Tarot Handbook by Angeles Arrien is a good book to add to your collection. I have been studying Tarot for almost 20 years. Numbers fascinate me and I have been able to relate to them early in life. Research online you will see that the deck is full of symbols, artistically designed and is the most accurate to the tree of life. Good luck with your studies. Don't let anyone discourage you from learning what feels right to you.
