    If you are doing the course online, try and get in touch with others on the course through the online forum.
    Someone maybe live close to you and you could possible meet and try study together of through the forum.

    Contact the course provider to see what is available, don't be afraid to ask the course college/tutor/students for help.

    Some online college's offer a forum or study platform like moodle, where you can message other students on the same course as you through a public forum with the platform.
    This way you can post a general request for assistance or try and for a study group that meets once a week to discuss any difficulties and learn from each other.

    Thank u Sup08 for your info, i just googled moodle. Why dont the online college tell students about this information that is available. I was going to quit today.. I havent studied in years and even back then i was not great at the books so this is a big step for me.

    Best of luck with your course, contact the college and find out what they provide in the way of support for their students and what platform do they provide for contacting your fellow students.
