hey, just some personal tips from my personal learning journey.

I started off by learning the basics and syntax of python ( such as
how the functions look like,
the for loop, ifs else etc cos it is slightly different ). I read teh
book : Dive into python which is available free online.
I only read teh first 4 chapters. (i have some C programming
experience )

Afterwhich i went straight into the online djangobook ( the first 7 or
8 chapters to understand
how it works ).

It took me about 2 weeks ( i spent about 2 or 3 hours per day ) to
learn what is going on,
and by than i could already write some decent projects already using
Django.

The good thing by not going to the book camp is that u control your
pace.

Yup hope this helps.
