0= "love" as it's called.
15 = first point
30 = second point
40 = 3rd point

If both players reach 40, it's called duece, and you have to win the next 2 points to take the set.

6 sets = a match, and generally, a game is played until you win an odd number of matches (typically 1, 3 or 5, however for most games you play 3 sets). If you both win 6 sets, then anoher set is played for the match, which is a tiebreak.
