You have got to love public education.
Ah, thank you.

That bit of background makes your questions much more understandable.
^^Not joking this morning.^^

Learning how to power-on the computer is useful, but not quite the complete background required to achieve your goals.

Learning how to use one graphic interfaced application is also useful. In general, it demonstrates one type of interaction with the end-user.

Being self-taught is still common among the members of a hobbyist site such as this one (and in the world in general).
Not to run down formal education in a specialty, that has its uses also.
My guess is that most of the developers here have a combination of both types of learning in their backgrounds.

So keep on, keeping on -
Just because the path is long does not mean it isn't worth traveling.
