No difference whatsoever in the music. The notes are all in the same place on both types of guitar.
You might find an electric guitar is easier to manipulate (the strings are typically lighter and closer the the frets; "low action"). But if you already have an acoustic, then let's get started! An electric is not required or necessary at all.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes for you, ask more when necessary. Best of success learning and playing. Have fun!
