Shading Vs. Coloring

Some people are stuck between shading with pencil and coloring and don't really know which one to start with.  Well... What do I think? I think that you should start with shading, then work your way with coloring. You should also take one of those basic art classes and stuff :3 . They seem boring and may seem useless, but you'll learn about which colors fit together and how to use them.
