I want to learn Python. I enjoyed "Python Basics" and "Python Collections" classes, but Stuck in "Object-Oriented Python" class. Within this course, "Instant Objects" and "Inheritance" are ok, but "Advanced Objects" is difficult!
I want to keep learning. Can I please get some advice?

Alex Koumparos
Python Development Techdegree Student 36,886 PointsAnother idea would be to google the topic you are struggling with and read a few other tutorials, blog posts, etc on the same subject. Sometimes just seeing/hearing the same thing explained a slightly different way or in a slightly different voice can make the concept 'click'.
Also, be realistic with yourself. Object-orientation is hard and most of us get confused or struggle with parts of it.
