The best way for me to learn a programming language is to give myself a problem that I want to solve with that language. For basics, Python has a lot of good resources - you can probably find one that matches your skill level relatively easily. Adding to Devac's options, I like Codecademy for the very basics, Automate the Boring Stuff for a hands-on way to learn Python, and Learn Python the Hard Way for the more rigorous approach.
