I had trained my sister who just knew how to browse the internet and search for information from google.
I started teaching her first the C language (from the book "let us c" by yashwant kanetkar, with basic algorithms)
Then taught her C++ (object orientation for her started here)
Meanwhile in parallel started HTML, javascript, DOM, css. (from w3cschools.com)
Then started with c sharp (Without using visual studio)
In parallel to this started ASP (classic) and SQL server for database.
Then we moved on to ASP.NET (again without using visual studio) using the ASP.NET quickstart tutorial included in the SDK.
Finally started with doing mock projects in ASP.NET using Visual Studio 2005 and Sql Server 2005.
This whole training took 1 year, but considering the fact that she ended up getting a job, it was alright.
Initially I thought of started with c# straightaway but its just that she would have missed understanding pointers and memory management.
-- my 2 cents.
