For a beginner may be sometimes very difficult to compose the image. Composition is the positioning of the main subject in the frame and the background/foreground. For them the rule of thirds may be very handy.
Even though it is up to the creativity of the photography, it is good to understand the psychology when some one is seeing a picture.
Assume that the total frame of the camera is divided into 9 cells using three vertical and three horizontal lines which are equally spaced. It has been observed that, human eye first catches the corner of centre cell, rather than the exact centre position. So it is always good to position your main subject at any of this four corners. Exact centre may not always catch the attention of the viewer and sometimes they may causally skip that picture.
In your camera, you can enable grid lines in the setting which may help to position the object based on the rule of thirds.
A great explanation of ruel of thirds with examples has been provided at the link below.
