After 15 years of desktop support, I am following my passion to be a Python3 programmer. I am still an amature programmer, but I aced the python fundamentals course from Coursera to flesh out my skills. I would like to continue developing my programming skills by volunteering for Tor. Do you have something I can help with? Thank you.

Thanks for writing to us.
Here is a list of the different Tor projects and the main languages they are in: https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#Projects Some projects use other languages for minor components or scripts.
Here is a list of tickets for first time contributors: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/report/30
And if you're interested in skipping that and just diving into coding, here is an active ticket in Tor to write a python script to update the list of directory authorities in the Tor source code: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24851#comment:1

Thank you so much. If you don't mind I think I will start off with the "tickets for first time contributors". When I have a question do I just email this address for assistance? Once again thank you.

It might be best to ask in the #tor-dev IRC channel on the OFTC network, for "possibly real-time answers". (More information on how to connect to that is at https://www.oftc.net/)
Feel free to ping me in that channel for specific Python help
