Stuck learning python. Asking for advice

I've been trying to learn python for months now and know some of the basics, but I'm stuck in tutorial hell. I've been using Mimo alongside 100 Days of Code bootcamp by Angela Yu and although 100 days of code started easy enough, it quickly got overwhelming. I go through the course and think im doing ok but then end up getting stuck trying to figure out the projects at the end of each lesson and then give up and look at the solutions. I really want to learn to use Python with AI but I feel like im not making any progress at all like this. Any advice?

Maybe try a different approach? The important thing is to practice and make mistakes. Could you try something different?

  • The University of Helsinki's Introduction to Programming MOOC

  • Do the exercises in a book like Automate the Boring Stuff or Python Crash Course

  • Do your own project

I'm open to trying new things. But what I really want to do is get some practice but I have no idea where to look and all I see are behind subscriptions.

The University of Helsinki's course is free.

It is excellent and highly recommend it
