These models all work similarly from a programming perspective. Once you've mastered linear models, you should find it easy to master the mechanics of these other model classes. Being a skilled modeller mixture of having some good general principles and having a big toolbox of techniques. Now that you've learned some general tools and one useful class of models, you can go on and learn more classes from other sources.
