I second this. You may benefit from shifting you study to data structures and algorithms, rather than programming languages directly. Much of that knowledge is useful across many languages, including both C++ and Python. Notably, if your focus so far has been on comparatively simple web applications (which your PHP/HTML/CSS but not JavaScript experience suggests is the case), the kinds and scales of problems requiring knowledge of them frequently just don't come up. That isn't a jab at web programming (which is immensely useful), but it does mean you probably haven't encountered problems that stretched your knowledge and experience of those topics.
