Sounds to me like you're using a WYSIWYG editor to create your webpage...meaning you're not typing out all the code yourself.

All you do to put text next to an image is type it right after it.

Eg.
<img src="your image"> Your Text

The only way your text would be going down to a new line is:
1. You have a break return (<br>) in between the image and your text.
2. You're using tables and are in a new row (<tr>).
3. You're in different divs (which I doubt you're using if you're new to html).
4. The image is too wide to fit on your screen (or if your page has width restrictions in place), and thus the text is "word-wrapping" below it.

If this doesn't answer your question, please post your code so I can see exactly what's going on
