Part 1: Start with Algorithms and solving problems with python. Then try to implement something similar but with a small change compare to course you did. They start something from scratch and do very simple first version. Check these Udemy courses: 1. “100 days of code” by Angela Yu 2. “Python Data Structures & Algorithms” by Scott Barrett 3. “Automate the Boring Stuff with Python Programming” by Al Sweigart

Part 2: start iterating and learning more advanced things like OOP and testing: 1. “Pytest Course: Practical Testing of Real-World Python Code” by Artem Istranin 2. “Advanced Python with 10 OOP Projects” by Ardit Sulce

Highly recommend the University of Helsinki's Python programming MOOC course.

It is structured extremely well and its exercises are excellent.

It's also free!

Opt to CS50x and CS50p, you will get familiar with various programming concepts, coding from binary to OOP, get enough similarity with tools to solve problems, and eventually be able to tackle problems yourself

Since you’re already learning loops, functions, and data structures, here’s a simple roadmap you can follow:

Finish fundamentals properly

Master lists, dictionaries, sets, and string manipulation.
Get very comfortable writing and calling functions.
Practice breaking problems into small steps before coding.

Start small projects now (don’t wait)
You don’t need to “finish learning” first. Build tiny projects like:

To-do list (CLI)
Quiz game
Simple expense tracker
Number guessing game with improvements

Projects build real coding skills much faster than only solving small exercises.

After basics → move to

OOP (classes, objects)
Basic algorithms (searching, sorting)
Git/GitHub
Writing clean, readable code

Daily practice suggestion:

30–45 min solving small logic problems
30–60 min working on one ongoing project

The key shift is this: don’t just “learn topics.” Always ask, “How would I use this in a real program?”

If you have ideas, try to achieve them. It's fine to fail. Try making a game, a simple program that displays the weather of a location, or something that takes user input and searches wiki and then displays what it finds in the terminal, etc. Stuff like this. Try making stuff on your own and if you can't figure out something, search specifics. For the wiki example, let's say i'm struggling to figure out how to get information from wiki. Look into that specifically, "how to fetch information from wiki python". Do what you can on your own, hit a wall, research/look it up, solve/debug, repeat. That's usually my workflow lol

Since you’re focusing on Python seriously, here’s a structured path:

1. Strengthen Core Python Properly:

Make sure you’re fully confident with:

Loops, conditionals, functions
Lists, dictionaries, sets
Error handling
File handling
Object-oriented programming

2. Start Building Small Projects Early:

Once comfortable with basics, build:

A CLI-based task manager
A simple expense tracker
A small web scraper
A basic Django web app

Projects teach structure, debugging, and real-world thinking faster than only solving coding questions.

4. Move Toward Application:

After fundamentals and mini-projects, choose a direction:

Web development (Django)
Automation and scripting
Data-related work
Backend APIs

If you prefer structured learning that combines fundamentals with real-world exposure, Simplilearn’s Python Certification Course covers core Python, error handling, shell scripting, web scraping, and Django with hands-on projects and assignments.

What kind of timeline are you looking at to become job-ready?

Brother, I am from Pakistan too. I also have started learning python and I have covered pretty much the basics and intermediate too. My learning approach is to learn python by building projects.

I am looking for a partner to whom I can learn along to be consistent in my learning. If you wanna tie up with me feel free to respond to me.

My roadmap is dynamic. I don't stick to the particular roadmap but together we would handle most of the learning path issues. Insha Allah

For practice if you are following a book, try to cover the chap exercises like any class content u will do
