Why do you think that some stranger on the internet is going to be your 
tutor? Unless you belong to some minority, you shouldn't be waiting for 
a tutor to take your hand and guide you... that's probably not going to 
happen. Apply the advice that's been already given to you, e.g. read the 
old mails and write each advice down. Until that, *please* lurk moar.
