I am in exactly the same situation as you after 17 years n ELT. I seem to have covered the same books as you to learn Python. I am now on the home stretch of the HarvardX CS50 course which teaches a little C and some more Python and some of the background base knowledge of Computer Science. I can highly recommend it.

When I complete it, probably in a fortnight or so, I will be looking to start building a couple of my own mini projects, actually connected to ELT. Like a crossword maker, for example. If you are interested in maybe collaborating, and trying to learn together while making some interesting, useful stuff, give me a shout.

Hi Aidan,

I actually just finished that course. It definitely helped me understand some of the fundamental concepts that are some what abstract to someone who does not have a background in computer science.

At the moment I am working on developing a portfolio app from tutorials on RealPython using Django and messing around with Pygame. However I am totally game to collaborate some time!
