Why on Earth are you learning/using C? There is so much emphasis on OOP these days that you're essentially confining yourself to a very small, specialized area. 

Actually, it's pretty good to start. Before learning OO it's better to know thing like memory management, pointers, implementation of data structures (stack, queue, etc). That knowledge will save him a lot of trouble in other languages.
