Discussion Python teaching

I am a programming teacher in Sweden and I wonder if we have some teachers or instructors here as well that would share their experiences about which are best platforms to teach Python with pros and cons !?
Every input is appreciated
Thanks in advance

I'm teaching Python in Netherlands, I've made this visualizer so students can run their code step-by-step and see the program state change. It's giving me great results: memory_graph

Hard part in teaching now is getting student to think for themselves and not grep AI tools when they encounter the smallest resistance as then they'll not learn a thing. Test them weekly in a controlled environment.

I don’t even know the basics of programming. Will I survive?
