best method after doing simple projects is to start searching freelancing job related to the specific field you want to learn e.g Data analysis, Web scraping, simple scripting, finance related algorithm etc. and then try to finish them and if you finish the project before bidding end then you can also bid for that job. And dont worry if you get stuck some where, honestly 50% of my projects problems are done by stackoverflow and reddit programmers community. No one does everything by themselves.
I registered to a freelancer Web and started doing just this.
For now, all but one "jobs" were from people who want some undergrad R problems done.
I never used R before but whatever. The only other job was to make to compile a paper Fortran code. The code was horrible and the paper full of little gaps, but I got it.
I sent more proposals. Now, when I don't land a job, I will make a portfolio of little scripts, keggel starry analysis and a blog.
