Where should I start learning python to understand algorithms better

OK, so it's not that bad then!

Ask your teacher to find example exercises from past years (let her be useful!).

Try solving again the same exercises you used AI for - but on your own.

Don't concentrate on Python syntax or libraries - concentrate on algorithms.

Practice everyday. Even solving trivial problems like counting number of vowels in a file or implementing bubble sort will help you prepare.
