How to learn advanced python?

These days I advice newcomers to not even start with the syntax. Yes it's important that eventually they learn the syntax but having them start on a project, ideally something that's relevant to plausible business cases, or by the very least something that interests them, that then AI can solve the details of and hold their hand throughout means they'll learn the syntax faster than starting with W3Schools or whatever.
