Some tips for solo learners:-

--> Stick with one course. Complete it and then move on --> Make note of important topics so that you can revise later --> Don't jump to another topic unless u understand a topic completely --> Post questions about hard topics and get answers from others. It will help understand the topic better --> Go through comments section in every page --> Practice every code in the Code playground --> Compete with your friends using code challenge Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance. Happy coding friends.

Nice list, only one thing to add: --> Don't ask questions that lack a description (very annoying)

Once you've gone through a course. Do a bunch of challenges related to that course. When you get answers wrong there's a link that lets you see the right answer. Take time to learn why you got it wrong and how to get it right. I've found that I learn things better when I make mistakes and then learn from them than when I just read through the course. I also second what has been said about actual coding. Writing/debugging programs is also a great way to learn from your mistakes. If you spend hours trying to figure out why your code isn't working correctly you bet you'll learn something from it.

To me, this post is the only treatment I need for JavaScript. I didn't get it well.

Here are some that I use: •As soon as you complete a module/encounter something you don't understand during any course, visit www.w3schools.com for additional information. •Try to write a piece of code everyday, either a time-pass short-term project or a long-term advanced project. This is useful because when you're coding everyday, you are basically revising what you just learned. •Show your certificate to others as soon as you complete a course, whenever they praise you, you get motivated. •Keep Flashcards in your pocket just in case you forget some attributes of an element, forget how to get info from a HTML form, e.t.c. •Always Check you weekly leaderboard and strive for a new goal every week. Hope this helped! Happy Coding!

- Take it easy - It is absolutely ok if you do not remember everything you learnt. - Programming is about BUILDING projects not a memory championship. - Learn programming best practices from the beginning - Sharpen your skills by building real projects.

These questions are good for interview but after learning and practise in pc we should come here at the beginning for improve and judge ourselves because we can't find everything here.

@Hale Dennis look that in the string ' shop' there's also space before shop. That's why :)
