for me taking classes is the best way i learn. If you're a really good self-learner then I'd recommend reading books/online tutorials then making your own mini projects with what you've learned. The more programs/projects you make, the better.

In a year you can make a lot of great projects, just depends how much time you put into it!

For C++ I like this book: Walter_Savitch_-_Absolute_C++,_4th_Edition_-_2009
