None of the teaching methods for programming has worked for me if I were to look at it from a fresh perspective (I'm in computers but programming is not my day to day work). After learning the basics (easy/easy/lost) of pretty much several languages, I have ultimately realized that learning to program takes consistent discipline and daily practice.
However, it still takes a certain mindset (brain chemistry perhaps) which makes certain people leapfrog others. May be it has something to do with how a brain sees logic and numbers (I see logic and numbers but not necessarily in proficient manner).
My ultimate conclusion is that if programming doesn't come naturally to you, then you are looking at a whole lot of discipline and consistent practice. The chances of you giving up here is very high. But if programming comes naturally to you, then you can become a programmer irrespective of the kind of teaching pedagogy you follow.
