Hey all,
I’m new to coding and I’ve just realized that I need a tutor/mentor. It is extremely difficult to study alone. I have just started the HTML-CSS curriculum and I need to do my first certification project. I’m currently busy with it and I’m realizing that I have so many questions. I need someone to work with, someone to guide me and someone to give me tips and tricks. I am serious about this journey and any help would be appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from anyone. Thank you in advance.

Hi and welcome to the forum 
It is a bit difficult when you start your journey as a coder, and I understand you. You’re actually asking in the right place, The FCC Forum! If you have any questions, just post them here, any problems solving a particular challenge, ask here. There are a lot of great people willing to help and guide you. Even if you need feedback about your code, you’ll receive tips on improving your project.
I joined the forum nearly a year ago, and since then, I haven’t found the need to look for guidance anywhere else.
If you still need a real tutor for programming, that would cost you something but overall, you can learn a lot here for free as a beginner.
Happy coding!

Thank you. I am a bit scared that I won’t be able to programme. I have gone through the first set of tutorials but when it comes to applying what I’ve learnt and completing my first certification project, I’m struggling. Thank you for the swift response though. You have given me confidence that should I have any questions, I will get a quick response. I will be frequenting this forum.

No problem! Yeah, it’s totally normal if you’re struggling with the first project. That’s actually how you’re supposed to learn, otherwise, it wouldn’t be called learning. Don’t be scared about anything, you got this! Good luck!

Private tutoring is very expensive. You should ask questions here on the forum when you’re stuck to get help.

Totally agree, I highly recommend to join a team with help of FCC Discord Channel

Also it’s good to do self learning and ask for any help here.

There are quite great tutorials available on YT as well, do checkout and take help from there as well.
IMO personal tutor is not needed
Thank you everyone for the encouraging words. I’ve just joined the FCC Discord Channel.
HI @mahapa.gk !
Welcome to the forum!
As the others have mentioned private tutoring is expensive so I agree with the suggestions about being active on the forum and discord when you need help 
That is a normal feeling because this is all new. The more you practice and the more time passes you will start to understand the concepts better.
I would suggest going through a few of the labs in the new full stack cert.
That will give you more practice.
Also, you can watch a few of the videos in areas that are still fuzzy for you. That will help with your comprehension.
