Buckle up for this one. So the company i've been working for, for the last two years asked me to train someone. Two years ago I walked in here not knowing anything about programming, I learned several languages in a few months and ive become "the best programmer they have ever had". So now I was asked to train someone. Not just anyone though, the bosses son. Smart kid, just lacks any motivation and has zero work ethic. He has moments of promise, and then there was yesterday. For the past 6 months i've been attempting to teach him HTML, VB JQUERY etc. Basic "hello world" stuff. We've been using Lynda.com to give him a more visual example etc, giving him stuff thats simple. Yesterday I had to show him again how to Define a variable in VB (you know DIM), which wasnt the bad part. The bad part when he asks me whats wrong with his code and I find PHP :wtf: in there, and he's arguing with me about it. No idea what to do with this one. Really seems like im at the end of my rope/patience. Any idea's on how to feed someone the fundamentals?

These are all wonderful, thank you so much for the valuable incite! :)

Thanks for the help! Im a network guy (cisco)/Server admin and I would really like to become proficient with SQL. I have a very VERY basic grasp of it, so if you could share some possible resources, and maybe some study material links that would be great. If there is anything with practice labs that would be great. I all ready have a server setup with 2008 ready to be sacrificed. Thanks for any incite! Andy
