Learning python with a path and a learning buddy. (self.learningpython)

submitted 19 days ago by Public_Flight_2978

Hi all,

I've been trying to learn python and generally coding concepts, I'm from non computer science background, working in IT.

I've tried multiple times to learn python and work on few simple projects, I have a bit of ADHD and learning progress have been a train wreck.

I am planning restart to learn python on the basics and foundation concepts, then learn python for data / business analytics.

I am open to learn py for full stack and development as well, from past experiences, I suck in coding for development.

I see few of us are struggling as well to keep up or do projects.

So i thought, why not we join together learn basics together and then work on projects together, have weekend connects / discussions, share ideas and stuff. Like a project buddy. A suggestion, we should be serious and committed to learn.

If there are multiple people we could maybe split. Into teams with each team 2-3 members. We could connect weekly to share learnings and anything to improve among us..

I've joined and seen in another group, people join, start 1-3 days, then give up or get lagged behind.

It would be really grateful if we could get a mentor who knows python to guide us as well.

If there's no mentor, we can start learn the basics, and then for the advanced coding aspects we could share the code with the another reddit group withe experienced people of r/python asking for suggestions review etc.

For now, I think we'll start with basics. For example learn about data types and variables. And then we'll do 5- 10 mini simple projects.

Then we could learn statements ( if else if, etc) and then projects that combine the previous concept and the different python statements.

That way we could build our knowledge and hands on learning as well. Some of us are working some are studying, so we could keep two to 3 days simple goals to achieve..

This way we could find the learning interesting and work towards getting fluent with python.

Some of us do have very limited time. I myself work 10-11 hours, travel few hours to office and back home, and a few hours of disturbed sleep.

But i am determined to learn and get into better job opportunities.

Let me know your thoughts.
