Creator story

Built by someone who got stuck at the blank file.

I'm Simas Bandzevicius. I built LearnWithPython to close the gap that almost every beginner falls into — you can follow a tutorial from start to finish and still freeze the moment you open an empty editor.

So this site is built around the opposite habit. You meet an idea, you run it in the same minute, you build something with it, and you see it again before it fades. 55 lessons, 9 projects and 18 challenges — all of it free, and all of it graded on code you actually wrote.

The mission

Help people write Python with confidence — through guided practice, real execution and deliberate repetition, not passive watching.

Who it's for

Complete beginners who have never written a line, and self-taught coders who can read Python but freeze when asked to build something on their own.

What's inside

10 courses and 55 lessons, 9 portfolio projects, 18 arena challenges and a 92-snippet reference — with spaced repetition to keep it.

What I believe about learning to code

Typing beats reading

Understanding a concept and being able to produce it are different skills. Only one of them gets you a working program, and only practice builds it.

Feedback has a shelf life

Every lesson ends with code you run and output that is checked immediately, while the idea is still in your head and a correction still lands.

Forgetting is the real problem

Most courses are built to be finished, not remembered. Smart Review brings concepts back on a schedule so what you learn survives the week.

Also built LearnWithSQL

The same approach applied to SQL — practical, query-first learning for analysts, founders and operators.
