Programming Training?

I was diagnosed with Asperger's / Autism Spectrum Disorder a year or so ago, and I'm just about ready to resign myself to a cubicle somewhere where I apparently belong. My current job as a teacher just isn't getting me the results I want. The kids seem to hate me, and we just aren't connecting with one another. Plus, I've reacted emotionally more than once to stressful situations involving the kids, and that's a no-no. This job has definitely required me to have skills I don't think I have.
The problem with switching to computer programming, though, is I'm a novice when it comes to computers. I'm just a casual user like everyone else, except maybe the kids. If I'm going to get a job with computers, I need training. I know about a few free programs, but I get discouraged and stressed out pretty easily, making self-paced programs difficult for me to follow. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was wondering if anywhere offered OJT, but I doubt they do. Read responses in city-data.com |
