In addition to doing previous years’, I’d check out https://github.com/wimglenn/advent-of-code-data, which you can use to write some automation about loading data and submitting your responses. If you don’t know how to write unit tests, this might be a good chance to learn the basics. In most problems, he gives you a sample input and the expected result.

I personnaly use CodinGame, which provides lots of different puzzles and "battles" against other programmers, and Exercism, which provides learning tracks for lots of languages (including Python), with puzzle-solving exercises and a cool mentoring mechanism where you can ask for help on a given exercise (or give help if you feel like it!)
