I am new to programming and I really want to improve my programming skills. As of right now, I am just reading books to learn. I can make basic sites using html,css,php,mysql. If I got a tutor, say just a experienced programmer who would like to teach me, would the money and time be worth it?
The cost is around $30/hour.
Or would just programming yourself and working with other like-minds(because I am in college) be the best way to learn?
