I've been working some tutorial books on Ruby and Rails. After diving into rails a bit, I decided to back up and focus on learning Ruby first because I am finding the syntax is beyond me right now.

I discovered a problem that keeps coming up in my Rails or Ruby tutorials: Programs that won't execute properly, even though I checked the code against the tutorials. I have no one to ask why. I need an instructor so I can ask questions. My local colleges don't teach ruby or RoR. They tend to be microsoft-centric. THe only non-microsoft stuff they have is Java and Perl

I am thinking of taking this course for $50: Ruby Programming 28th Batch: Registrations now open

can anyone recommend a beginners course (or let me know if the one above is any good)?

Anyone want to be my study partner?
