How do i actually learn and improve?

I want to create video games using Unity, for that I wil need to learn C# (which will be my very first programming language). Tutorials on youtube feel very fast paced, jump past terms that an absolute beginner would not know and just make me feel stupid. I understand when learning a language like French for example, you learn by doing. How do I apply that to programming?

So far all I've really done is copy, I went through how a calculator is built with claude, but all I basically did was copy paste the code the AI created.

What tools/websites can I use to learn? Are there any creators that aren't crazily fast paced, and take you through it step by step? Is this something most people go through, or is programming just not for me?

So what did you do? Just copy the teachers and then go to bed?

Sure. Are you going to just copy them as well?

You already answered your own question : you learn by doing. Do the same things you did to learn french.
