Hi , how do you practice programming? I mean when you learn a programming lesson, do you solve a lot of exercises till you get familiar with it?
Also, how did you manage your time?
I empower people to become software developers, especially those with kids/family responsibilities, full-time jobs, or who feel too old to start over. 🥰👩🏽💻

My programming practice approach is a mix of algorithms and building actual projects. I use algorithms to better learn how methods work; I build projects to conceptualize what I'm learning and make them stick.
Regarding time management, I don't mark my progress with time, but with tasks-completed. I used to watch so much tv lol and I cut all that out to learn to code. I was very motivated so it wasn't hard to devote time to learning.

That's a good question Rania!
