How can I find someone to help me with Visual Basic?

I live in Lakeland FL and I am having difficulty finding someone to assist me in learning Visual Basic. I own VB6 and .Net 03, but with only a very minimal understanding of computer science, I find it difficult to find my way. I have offered to pay other programmers that I meet, usually $50 per hour, but they always tell me to buy a book. I can learn quickly from a book, but I really do need a live and in-person guide. Any suggestions?

Find out if your local community college has any programming classes. I took a programming class at a community college in the San Francisco Bay Area, in California a while back.

Reply:Take a course from you local technical college. They will teach you the basics of programming syntax. Then buy a book.

so, it depends on ur aptitude whether u can pick it up from books.


if u already find it difficult, probably u r not the guy who can do self study.


but if u r going to do self study , then dont pick some book like learn vb in 24 hours or vb for dummies like that.


buy a bigger book, which u may find terrifying at first. something like begining visual basic, or visual basic bible or visual basic black book.
