How did you study C/C++ people? Did you buy books or just downloaded some ebooks from the internet? Which books did you study from if you could name them for us? Or did you study C/C++ from a tutorial as now many people study stuff from tutorials. I studied C from "Let us C" - By Yashwant Kanetkar and C++ from "Let us C++" - By Balaguruswamy. Both these books are easy to understand and best for beginners i feel.

When I learn some new language, I usually read the book for the first time to smell a brief idea. And then I try to write a program by myself to achieve the same thing as it did in the example and compare the different implemenation. I learn this way and it help.

Just think. Experiment. Talk with your teacher, you have to love programming, do it for pleasure. Don't read books day and night because that's not programming. Go to contests and get more and more experience.
