Find a mentor?

Question

Programming

I am looking for a mentor. I want to do web design, also learn programming. Before that, I didn’t touch this area at all, so I can say a teapot. And if suddenly someone decides to take me on and teach everything from scratch, I will be very grateful and of course I will not be a lazy ass. Because I understand what it is, and it seems to me that no one will dare to do this. But still, the attempt is not torture. What's more, I'm 17 years old. I don't know what else to say, because I have no experience in this business. I didn’t contact Photoshop either, I didn’t write sites, I didn’t use scripts or something like that. In general, I don’t know anything about this, but I really want to know and, most importantly, understand. You do not think that I am a lazy asshole and wait until everything is done for me. I myself also sit and look, watch different lessons, read, but I still don’t understand anything. Full of unfamiliar words
Ps all within reason of course

Answer 1

Beginners are taken as assistants either to ride them for free or for a penny. Just like that, no one wants to spend time pulling up a newbie on client projects.
It is better to set yourself a task, for example, to design a site or layout a site according to someone else's layout, or something else like that. And slowly move from start to finish until the site is ready. As you develop, watch videos on the topic of the process (for example, you make a menu, or google how to make a menu for a site or how to draw a beautiful site menu) and along the way you will understand more and more deeply.
And one more thing... To learn something, you need to cook in it all the time. If you want to be a designer, rustle in this direction: subscribe to cool foreign designers on YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Dribble, Behance, see the work in Awwwards. If you want to be a front-end developer, do the same for the front-end.

Answer 2

No one makes temporary investments in strangers, but it’s better to start with programming. An experienced coder can become a good designer, and an experienced designer can only be a designer whose fantasies are fruitless without a good coder.
Here are some links to resources to help you make your choice:
Web Developer Development
Roadmap w3schools
freecodecamp
learn.javascript.ru
Sites for learning to code in a game style...
As for the rest, there are video tutorials from youtube and a whole ocean of pirated products, books and video (if there is no money). More than 80% of the best coders paid for their training only with time and perseverance, without asking outsiders to babysit them.
How to decide on the materiel, take up freelancing practice, working with greedy clients, taking on their "mega-projects" with "super-budgets".

Answer 3

I myself started learning PHP at the age of 14, I didn’t watch a single lesson anywhere, I just looked at the code, and slowly began to understand what was happening.
So, here is the main desire, there are a lot of articles on the Internet)
At the expense of incomprehensible words - there is a toaster for this)

Answer 4

Lesson #1
web design and programming are very different things and do not intersect with each other. To study both at the same time is the pinnacle of idiocy and will lead to very sad results. You also need to understand that not every person is able to become a designer and not everyone can write programs. Alas, wix.com will not make you a web designer, and the book "Programming Language ..... in 24 Hours" a programmer

Answer 5

You need to look for a mentor when there is at least the slightest base. Which will give any video on YouTube + the ability to google
Then yes, it makes sense.
Duck, why would a mentor explain to you, for example, "what are arrays" when there are a billion explanations on the Internet of what it is both in technical language and in English and using examples with boxes.
The advice is, decide what you want to do, then choose a language, and then read and practice.
