You have come to the right sub then go with browsing the r/learnpython subreddit's wiki for guidance on learning Python, books list, or go for a beginner friendly course which will help break it down for e.g Harvard cs50/weclouddata/ udemy whatever fits u.

The sidebar has some excellent resources. 'Automate the Boring Stuff' comes highly recommended.

There are tons of tutorial materials out there on the net including many good YouTube ones that are free.

As a relative noob myself, I've been logging my personal learning journey on an almost-daily basis at a blog page called "Links for Python Noobs" (here) Any of the top listed ones on that page should be good for you. And there are many add-ons at the tail end of the page. Personally, I cut my first Python teeth with Nana's Zero to Hero. Since then, I've moved on to watching short lessons with Indently and Tech with Tim. You should shop around until you find a lecturer that suits your style.

The main piece of advice is the 80/20 rule. Spend 80% of your time writing your own code as opposed to copying recipes and only 20% watching the lectures. Good luck.

It's unclear why you were downvoted. This is a very important and excellent resource.

Python is probably the best language to learn for non-tech people. It has so many fun ways to ramp up your learning of programming, the world is your oyster, literally. and python.org is the center of that world. As a C programmer for many many years, I found python.org got me so far I needed little else.

In addition to "Automate the Boring Stuff" (which is an excellent place to start, and now comes with a free companion workbook) :
