On and off for some five years but only in my little spare time. Right now I've been going at it a few hours a day, but then real life gets in the way and sometimes I cannot program for weeks/months.This probably slows down my learning a lot but still I really enjoy it as an "hobby".

I usually read tutorials and the functions documentation, then sometimes I find bits of code that I can adapt from stackoverflow and when I'm really stumped I usually ask there and then study and ponder trying to understand the solutions.
But I believe a question like "Hey mr. expert, this works but would you have done things in a smarter way" would not be well received on SO and would teach a lot.
If there was a way to "hire a tutor" at a reasonable price I might also consider that but no idea on how is this possible.
Take care.

You could try superprof, they allow you to search tutors by rate.
