Could you expand on "a hard time reading"? Is this only for long tutorials or for any text?

I believe https://teamtreehouse.com/ uses a lot of videos in their courses. However, I do think it would be challenging to learn to develop websites by exclusively relying on videos.

When developing a website, you'll come across various challenges, bugs, conflicts, etc., and a large number of them will require reading docs, help forums, etc., to solve.

Perhaps graphic design may be a better option?

I seem to have a hard time with long text. I seem to be able to read forums okay since I'm reading all this here. I had no problem reading what you wrote.

I was really looking forward to web dev.
