Anything in particular that you're having trouble with?
You found SoloLearn, so that's an excellent place to get started with all of this. For myself, and I imagine for you, I have ADD so work on focusing on the courses you're taking and just push through them. :D
For myself, I read through the language first even if I don't fully understand it yet. Then I practice the things that I could remember from it. Afterwards I read through it AGAIN, but this time I write down notes of anything that I still don't fully understand. Then I take my notes and I extensively research everything that I wrote down, then I practice them extensively to solidify my understanding of it. Rinse & repeat that process until you've gained a good understanding of the language. A lot of what you'll learn will come through practice and working on projects where you get stuck on stuff and have to learn the solution.
After you learn and master a language, it's significantly easier to learn other languages, especially if you use the method I just gave you. Also, when in doubt, consult with other programmers and they're usually nice enough to assist. A great resource that has been priceless in both my learning and professional career is www.StackOverflow.com - It's an amazing community of people willing to help you with most problems you face. Learn their rules and obide by them and it'll be a priceless resource for you also.
Best of luck in your learning!
