Are you disappointed?

Couple of days ago I was frustrated because I did not make any progress at all. Now I reached level 15, only one level left for Platinum status. What are your experiences? Do you also feel stuck in SoloLearn?

Being stuck is normal in coding I think. I think it happens all the time, and learning to get unstuck by asking for help/looking at resources/getting away for a bit is a critical survival skill. Today was the first day I showed some students Android Studio, they got it all installed and were excited to try stuff...but it's intimidating, so many bells and whistles....so I put them in groups of 2-3....that worked... I don't like getting stuck, dont like it when stuff doesnt run, and my challenge record isnt very good. But like Senfman, here I am, still here, which is why I think this is a great and important question....

Due to the availability of PHP challenges, I'm now gaining XPs in no time. It's a great way to implement XPs...

Nope, XP isn't why I'm here, I'm here because I simply want to help other people, but I feel kinda stuck thou

@Dayve, I also feel like PHP helps me a lot, though HTML did not that very much when it came out.
