Hi, still a newbie here, I would just like to ask on how can I program an Arduino Board with Python. Do I need to download any plugins/extras? If so, can someone reply with some steps? Thanks!
Simple answer is you can't. Arduinos don't have enough memory or speed to run an interpreted programming language.
You can run microPython on an ESP32 and on some other similarly powerful microprocessors.

Robin2 is correct that you need a quite powerful microprocessor to run python.
Adafruit has put a lot of work into circuitpython which is a derivative of micropython. It is only ported for native usb boards, but not for the 8 bit architectures like the 32u4 on the Leonardo.
There are many microprocessor boards supported, but only five "Arduino" branded boards which can run circuitpython.
