Okay, pay attention this time.
You've accepted you're bad. That's good. There is no shame in your role models being better than you are. It'd be downright backwards to idolize someone worse than yourself.
As far as learning goes, this thread has some good resources and there should be plenty of guides at a local bookstore. Plus, as a writer, you should also read a lot - how else will you know what good writing looks like if you don't read good writing, am I right? But more important than teachers and resources and books, have a good attitude about learning but more important

PRACTICE
YOUR
WRITING

Albert Einstein wouldn't be remembered by history if he spent his schooldays flicking boogers at people instead of getting good at calculus. The point is you have to practice to get good at something. The only people who can even start to get away with it are true prodigies, and even then they need refinement and guidance to do anything with their great gift. But you're not a prodigy, you're going to have to practice. And most of it is going to be pretty damn bad. But that's fine. You're going to suck for a bit - everyone does when they're starting out. But you're going to suck forever if all you do is sit around and bitch about it.
As for real, practical resources, read the OP and stay in these threads but listen to what people tell you and don't get too argumentative.
