wait a minute here.a teacher who cannot be understood by the the students is a school problem that must be addressed to whoever the school principal or board is. You are going to school to learn, not to pay money and have someone else doing the home work for you. That is illegal and morally wrong.
Said that, we are more than willing to help (this is why we are here from, to learn from each other), but not for a fee! Please describe your problem, what you have written so far, and where you are having difficulties.
Yet, a school that FAILS to teach is a problem. And a serious one.

I suggest you start from this dev-archive web page:http://www.freevbcode.com/
There are lots of examples, tips and snippets free to download, or just cut and paste. You can chose the subject (like files and folders) and level (like beginners)
Of all the junk that there is in the web, the dev-archive sites are quite good (otherwise I would not be a subscribers of this forum)
Download a project, then using the help go and try to figure out what the code is doing line by line. Be persistent, and don't give up. Put a breakpoint where the program starts (typically the Load event of the main form), and run the application. Then go step by step using F8, learn to use the Locals, Immediate and Watch dialog, and see how the variables are changed at every step. Remember: the debugger is your friend.
You would be surprised to see how much you can learn by examples!
Good luck,
Marco
