i agree with ergeorge and thornc. You can't learn anything in programming by looking. It takes a bit to train your mind to think in the ways that the coding does, and simply watching a video won't just cut it... you have to train yourself with the code to become familiar with it, and being familiar with the code is the only thing that'll help you program stuff that works. Get a book, see if you can get a textbook that your class uses, and start up on the reading. Heck, you may even tackle one or 2 of the projects before class
besides, videos are for excercise machines...
