Part of your problem is you are starting with a sophisticated build tool,
Maven. On top of learning Java and your IDE, NetBeans, you are learning a
build tool. All things you will eventually need, but different components
which are orthogonal to "learning Java". Have you programmed without the
IDE yet? What about without a build tool? Now, if you must use the IDE
right off, it may be easier to use Ant projects or NetBeans standard
project types. At least you can use the IDEs notion of libraries to attach
libraries you download without having to learn Maven on top. Now, I use
Maven and it is good stuff to me, but you will be learning a lot about it
before you get to running and building if you use libraries which are not
in Maven Central or your local Maven repository.

Anyways, you need to see if there is a repository where geotools artifacts
are kept. Maybe they are in Central. If not or one doesn't exist, then you
need to add the library to your local Maven repository. Then you need to
add a dependency to your pom.xml file. Google bits of that and you will
find what you need.
