You need video editing software for editing videos. There are many video editing softwares out there. However few of them are popularly used professionaly. Popular professionaly used video editing softwares are Adobe premiere pro, Camtasia studio, Final cut pro, Davinci and Avid media composer.
When getting into video editing, its good to have one thing in mind, all of the video editors are out to achieve one goal- edit and enhance the quality of the video. Once you learn how to use one video editor, it will be easy to use other video editors since they have closely similar layouts.
If you have never edited video before, you learn how to edit videos on YouTube.
