Here is what I do: First, go through the entire course even if you don't fully understand it. Afterward, you'll want to practice what you can remember. Then you'll want to go through the entire course again, but this time write down notes of ANY concept that you don't fully understand. When you're done with the course, use your notes to extensively research any concept you wrote down and then practice it to solidify your learning of it. Repeat this process over and over until you no longer have to write down anything on your notes. This is an efficient method of learning the languages and ensuring that you understand each concept that you're trying to learn. Once you've done this, you'll want to seek out further resources to learn more concepts/advanced concepts for the language; repeat the same process with the other resources. This will help you master the language, and as you go through that process, keep practicing/creating new stuff so that you can solidify all of the concepts you're learning. The more you create, and the more problems you run into / have to solve, the better you become at it.

✅The most efficient way to increase your coding ability is practise. Whenever you learn new things put it in to yhe practise. Start from small projects and improve your knowldege and problem solving skils. ✅Then go for hard assignments. SoloLearn assignment are good way to practise your skills. And do not stop learn while you are practising. Go deep in the topics. 🔽🔽You can find good free resources from SoloLearn and also from you tube . 🔽Be a daily learner from those resources. ⏭And also there are bunch of good online courses you can try out of free. Freecodecamp is a bog resourse you can try for free of charge. Then try some udacity, coursera, udemy and codecademy courses. And you can paritcipare for coding challenges websites like codewars, hackerank, hackerearth. 🔻( I forgot SoloLearn quizzes are really helpful to rememorize the things you have learned). And try out pluralsight courses. They are brilliant and very helpful for improve knowledge.

You should start writing your own codes Prakash Ranjan , no matter how small. This helps to understand the basic concepts. If you want to deepen your understanding further, you should take a look at Hackerrank(.com). They offer some good coding practices for all major coding languages.

Practice always! Don't think that you will remember this and that and do not practice. By practicing,you will know the common mistakes made and will realise that there are much more to learn. Doing some mini programs would also be good to let you think and apply your knowledge rather than understanding it as theory.

I think the best way is try to work on simple projects and after that harder projects.
