How long have you got!?

If your school class isn't doing it for you, it really is a case of reading the books, trying any other courses you can find, look - really LOOK - at every photograph you see, everywhere you see them and practice, practice, practice!.
Oh, and you might try asking your teacher!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Like they said, you can't really give a brief answer!. It takes some time and practise just to learn the basics!.

A great book I know of and love is a book called KISS Guide to Photography(author is John Garrett)!. You could find it on Amazon just by searching the name though!. I think it will really help a lot!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
