More details to this question:
I committed larceny in a locker room at the place where I was hired on a college campus. The amount taken was $10.00, but the victim claims it is $30.00. I have no previous charges; I am going to college full time. I was caught on tape. Will it make a difference if I hire a private attorney versus just a court appointed attorney?

It is not clear whether hiring an attorney would or would not make things better for you, but generally, having an attorney is better. I am concerned about the possible felony charge of "Larceny in a Building." Hopefully, you could make a deal to lower that to a misdemeanor, or make a "plea under advisement" where charges are dismissed if you successfully complete probation.
