I'm thinking of taking a professional Python course (Already know C#). Would you recommend it, or just stick to learning C?

Python is useful, as is C. I use both at work. In the end, it's up to what you're trying to build, and different languages are suited better to different tasks.

Python is a much easier language than C as C is really low level.

Yeh true, C isn't used that much these days. I actually use C++, not C. C++ is still commonly used.

Back in HS when I did SDD, I had the choice to use any language but I picked Java.

Currently, at work I use Java for APIs, micro services etc. Build once, run anywhere (any OS).

Look into Golang, it's made by Google and compiles to any OS natively (in machine code executable). It still has the great C features like pointers etc, and you can even run C code in it.

We got taught Python and VB.Net.
Some classmates also decided to self-learn C# and C++ for their major project.

If you ever want to do GUI stuff, Python isn't the best language for that. But it does quite well for ML stuff.
