Hi Colter,
Youtube as it all - just don't get distracted. Another good resource is Udemy or CourseEra, however these are typically pay-to-use. Additionally, learning through community college classes could be another option. There's also usually extensive documentation provided online you can leverage in a learn by doing format where you teach yourself. For me, I learn better from an instructor who I can watch do the task and then replicate. I recommend you find a resource online, or in a book, that suites your learning style and stay motivated!

YouTube, Codeacademy, Udemy, W3 schools, library books, training and resource sites for the technology/language (Trailhead/Salesforce Developer Guide, AWS Training, Oracle Java Documentation, etc.), a formalized class. Many these options correspond with hands-on activities to help you grow.

It may not be appropriate to call programming and mathematics skills. Competency and proficiency in both areas require formal training.
Hence, if you are in school, the best way to pick up such “skills” would be to take classes in these areas. Once you have gone through some formal introductions, you are ready to move forward with more self-education.

If you're looking for shorter and more casual resources to learn new skills like programming and math, there are plenty of options available. YouTube tutorials from channels like The Coding Train and Traversy Media offer engaging and easy-to-follow videos on various topics. Online blogs and websites like Medium and Codecademy's blog provide concise and practical tutorials. Podcasts such as "CodeNewbie" and "Data Skeptic" offer audio-based learning in an accessible and conversational format. Online forums and communities like Reddit and Stack Exchange allow you to ask questions and learn from others in a more casual setting. Additionally, mobile apps like SoloLearn and Grasshopper offer bite-sized lessons and exercises. Remember to practice regularly and apply what you learn to solidify your skills.

When I started learning programming and data analysis, I didn't have much experience in this area. So, I began watching videos on YouTube. I prefer complete courses that offer or recommend platforms for practical application. It is essential to create a portfolio, including your projects (e.g., GitHub). If you desire a certificate, Udemy and Coursera are popular choices. For a more in-depth learning experience, I recommend considering a Bootcamp.
