For me the thing I had to learn was commenting more than anything else; working alone I never saw as much use for it. Then I worked with a guy that commented his code very well and suddenly I saw massive value in it.
I'm definitely still an intermediate programmer, but I think I was always fine admitting that to myself. It was getting over the fear of others reading and modifying my code that took me a while.
