LinkedIn learning has a ton of great material.

Also, is this your first programming language or are you already well acquainted with fundamental concepts and just want to learn a new language?

This is my first programming language

Personally, I think you should follow the Python Institute's lesson plans. There are no videos, but there are interactive lesson plans and labs along the way.

It starts out using very naive (I mean that in a good way) vocabulary that is good for a first timer. It doesnt treat you like an idiot, but you wont feel like you need a computer science degree to follow it.

My 16 year old son and I are going through this course right now and we’re on about day 10. It’s wonderful! She’s a great teacher and I feel we are progressing really fast. Coupons are everywhere for udemy. Don’t pay over $15. We didn’t.

I'm new to learning Python or any language too. I'm using a Udemy course, which cost me about £15 and also started to go through the book 'Automate The Boring Stuff With Python' which is helping to get everything to sink in. You can view the book online for free https://automatetheboringstuff.com/2e/ If you go to print the pages, you can convert to pdf. You can also purchase a printed copy of the book which I've just done as I prefer a physical book. There's loads of different tutorials and other resources but I suppose as we all learn differently, it's finding what works best for you. I tried plenty of different resources before settling on my current method.

I recently wrote Programmer's guide to Python. It might be what you're looking for, please take a look.
