Code stuff immediately! While you're watching the course, code alongside to soak up as much as possible. Or, alternatively, watch the video once to understand what's going on, then rewatch it to code alongside the teacher.

I've been teaching for a while, both online and in person, and this is a key technique I tell all my students. There's no point in watching me code something if you don't do it yourself.
