Start with basic learning, like what each code does? and once you get a catch on that start solving basic biology questions through logics (which is same for all program) + python coding. Only with practice you would be able to make it. Try solving as many biological questions you can through python. Look for various coding for your background available on net or may be on sololearn! NEVER STOP PRACTICING (atleast till you become expert!)

If you want to get better at Python, then do more Python based projects. Start with basics if you need them on Coursera, edX, etc., then jump into programming projects and Google anything you cant figure out how to do.
