Is Python the language of choice to teach/learn programming nowadays?

I learned to code with Java like 10 years ago. I haven't touched it again after graduating, and to be honest I was not so fond of the language (too verbose and too much OOP for my taste), but I'm glad I learned the benefits of having static types and a compiler from the start.

Obviously, Python is closer to pseudo code than Java, which is also great when you just start learning.
