I had to train my (lovably) girlfriend for the programming classes (she came from an entirely different background and was studying for a barely related degree) and even she, a normally thick skinned person, took offence at "try it yourself". Many people just don't get that programming, like writing, painting, playing instruments, fixing stuff, shooting, fighting, speaking a language, etc can only be improved by experience and time. Try it, fail it, try again, bang your head, curse, hate it, try again... until you either give up or are expert enough to navigate out of most situations.
