The best way to improve your programming skills and gain experience is through participating in some project. In my opinion the best way is to learn from the others. If you have no such an opportunity I suggest you to read about the so called "design patterns" to learn the de facto developers natural language (books like Head First Design Paterns and a classic Gang of Four Design
Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software). There are several resources online as well.
Good luck and let me know if I can help you any further.
