If you need someone else to make you learn to program - then you will never learn to program. Conversely, if you really want to learn program, you don't really need anyone else.
I don't think learning to program and funnel optimisation are similar. Funnel optimisation is a highly specialised toolkit to be used in certain very specific, narrow circumstances. You might arguably learn to make use of this skillset in a timespan measured in days. Programming is an extremely broad skill set that changes the way you look at the world and takes a decade to learn to be competent at.
- ezl 13y agoactually, i don't think we disagree on the "will not learn programming via someone else". personal trainers don't make you stronger/skinnier, either -- they're just cheerleaders and a convenient source of immediate feedback which accelerates the task. arguably, sitting in classes in college was really just reinforcement for self learning as well. reminds me of the scene in good will hunting: "you dropped 150 grand on an education you coulda got for a $1.50 in late charges at the public library" -- kind of true, but a lot of us need the handholding. (or maybe just me, but i definitely didn't have the focus to learn much without undergrad to help me).
