Hey, I would like to extend my part, like on the picture:
The middle point of the two rectangles should be over each other (black line), how can I do this?
Thanks

That being said, I'm guessing you need to just change on option in the extrude for your second part from "Add" (which adds the extrude to the existing part) to "New" (which creates a new part).
Here's an example.
To EXTEND as it appears in your red line work
You could go back to the feature that made your sketch a 3D part, which was most likely an extrusion, and you could EDIT that extrusion
Or, you can use a tool called MOVE FACE
But you really should do as Dirk and Seth said which is to go through the training courses
