I learn well from just freaking doing it. I mean get a project and use tutorials as a guide but figure it out as it pertains to you and your project. I didn't learn photoshop in school and I've never looked at a single tutorial. I'm a goddamn photoshop ninja and learned everything through figuring it out against a deadline. I completely zone out in web tutorials. The only way I can learn is in real, practical ways.

The best way to learn any program is to have something you want to make. Learn from different tutorials as you create.
