That really wasn't my point. It is not unheard of for C++ focused classes to not cover the basics of the C/C++ syntax in depth enough.
This really depends on the course.
Going over basic C concepts will not hurt him. In fact, it may make the material easier to understand, since C is far less complicated.

Right now I am attending a course on C++ but unfortunately as usuall all programming techniques are flying over my head....
the style of the instructor doesn't appear to working for barish. So, focusing on only syntax, namely C syntax without any C++ influence, will more then likely help him understand what is going on. Even if the course is basically just a C course, reading tutorial written from different perspectives may actually clear up some of the confusion.
Personally, I believe that if you can replicate the bulk of the functions in string.h, while knowing what every single line means, then you are in pretty good shape.
