I am in the same boat, I am currently teaching myself. When i was asking around and researching I kept coming back to this book:
https://www.amazon.com/Learn-Python-Hard-Way-Introduction/dp/0321884914/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1490799912&sr=8-1&keywords=learning+python+the+hard+way
I started not to long ago, I am on like chapter 20. However it is really helpful. I tried the whole Lynda.com thing and just didn't like it. However that is another option.
