Course Description

Visual Basic language often gets a bad rap, undeservingly. But don’t let that distract you from learning it! Beginners can appreciate its English-like syntax, and more advanced programmers can appreciate its vast libraries and flexibility. It’s part of the .Net family of languages, and as such, it allows you to program some truly amazing solutions. So, congratulations on choosing to learn this amazing language.

It is common experience among programmers that after learning the basics, you realize there is still so much more to learn! And the enthusiasm to learn if often not enough to make the leap from intermediate to more advanced programmer.  You need to practice and work on improving your skills.

You see, the bad news is the code fear is real, and it hinders, or even stops your progress. The good news is that you can learn to eliminate it! And all it takes is a little practice and determination. And that’s where this course will help you greatly!

The course goes over variety VB .net programming projects. I show you how to put the theory you learned into practice by showing you how to solve each exercise and walking you through all the Why’s and How’s.

Because the course covers all exercises from scratch, some of the concepts are repeated across multiple exercises. The course doesn’t follow any particular guideline where each exercise builds up on the previous one, but rather serves as a comprehensive reference, allowing students to skip exercises that present concepts the student is already familiar with.

We’ll go on a journey to program intermediate-level solutions using VB .Net techniques and concepts, such as Collections, Databases, OOP, LINQ, and much more.

You will learn how to translate the project requirements into a working code. You will learn to use many different programming concepts and pick the right one for your solution. But most of all, you will learn to think like a programmer!

This course is all about practice. Therefore, to benefit from this course, you need to be an active student. It doesn't matter if you are self-taught VB .Net programmer or attend a programming course. What matters is the time and effort you are willing to put into learning and practicing your skills.

There are no lectures in this course. However, I explain what I am trying to accomplish with each line of code, and touch on common pitfalls, too.

This is a course for intermediate level VB .Net programmers who need to put the concepts and theory they learned into practice, and for people who prefer to learn by doing.

If that's you, then let's code!

Instructor Details

Pavol Almasi

I am a professional computer programmer for a national insurance company. I am versed in variety of programming languages, technologies, and frameworks. Currently using mostly SQL and .Net.

I have a Bachelor's Degree from City University of Seattle.

I first came in contact with programming back in the good 'ol days of Visual Basic 6 and Visual Basic for Applications. Manipulating Access databasea was so much fun! 

I moved onto Web development in early 2000's, using HTML and CSS, later added PHP. It was then when I realized I really enjoyed the coding of the back end much more than the design part...and that joy of coding stayed with me ever since.

I LOVE coding, and I LOVE doing exercises and projects in my free time. I am hoping my courses help you to better understand the programming principles and give you a good starting point for your further adventure in computer programming,

I like the practice with explanations better for my level of understanding than spending a lot of time on low level explanations. Instructor is very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Enjoying it very much!

By Russell Bishop on 5/17/2023

I've been programming for a little over a year now and this instructor does a great job at explaining things. He's quick which is also nice and he's extremely helpful. I also like that there are plenty of videos to follow through and he does a great job at showing things on the screen and knows what he's talking about. Very little mistakes made and you can tell he has a great understanding for what he's teaching. I've taken other courses and that's not the case in some of them.

Took this to have a look at VB which I've never worked with. Not always coming to the same solution, not always liking the naming conventions used, but in general I think it gave me a good look into how things works in VB. Thanks Pavol!

By Brâncuși Daniel on 2/8/2023

It is still great! Though should also put a minimal focus on the colateral elements of the forms ( listviews and columns, splitter container which drags only one datagrid view etc) because you get along with the code v well, congrats, but then you spend twice as much time on figuring out connex elements. BUt I guess it is intermediate programming ( even if I come from some other advanced programming on another language type I don't grasp all forms here v. well) Thanks!!! Great job!!

By Alan Williams on 7/28/2022

It's a really great course and I would recommend it to anyone learning VB.net

By Hazel Lovelock on 11/18/2020

I'm not a beginner programmer and I wanted to find a course that's more about getting a taste of VB.NET and this course fulfilled that requirement. No long theory lectures or slides just practical coding.

By Mike Simicsak on 8/10/2020

I had previous programming experience on AS/400 in RPG. It seems like some of things they assume you know in the VB world have tripped me up. I specifically found the Auto Repair shop module on youtube and went through it. I was still having problems with my app, so I purchased the class to get access to the entire source code. It makes things I was struggling to understand before easy. Really helps to have a working example to start from.

By Travis Schoen on 3/30/2020

Great course, I have experience with C# and needed to translate the syntax to visual basic and the instructor does a pretty good job of doing just that. The course size is also helpful allowing for much practice in using the visual basic syntax, but allowing the students to complete a project solo would have to be the only thing that is missing from an otherwise great course.

By Ellie Moore on 12/14/2019

It is quiet fast, and you really do have to be a good beginner to understand, but i'm getting the hang of it, I think :)

By Doris Cramer on 11/8/2019

I am thrilled with it so far, the instructor walks through usable exercises and I can archive them for later project examples.
