i can agree coz i was very addicted to them, lot of tutorials i have watche, not every tutorial provides a valuable knowledge,some just teaches very basic stuff in fancy way & charges high.

what i can tell you is don't just watch them like a movie , do along with him, you can pause that video 100 times , replay it , do as he shows side by side.
Build what he builds , even if his giving git repo of that. getting stuck ask others , even if it looks difficult or complex at beginning . Just do it .
you'll instantly realize if you are making any mistakes .

the person teaching has a controlled evnivoment (PC), minor to no errors will occurs in his dev. but on your system it'll.

A project built in hour in a video will definately talke a day or 2 for you.

a suggestion coz that's how i learn.
Don't stop & hit that command.
