If you're planning on coding in different languages in the future I'd suggest learning an editor instead of an IDE. You'll kill 2 birds with one stone. VIM is cross-platform and Notepad++ is a good Windows editor. Both are free for personal use and I've used both to write code for Python, JavaScript, and PL/SQL.

Whatever you do, get good at using at least one editor. You'll use it a LOT in your development career.

What is the best IDE to use to start learning python on? I have about 7 languages on my belt and I need to start learning python 3, what IDE should I use?

if you feel comfortable with Visual Studio, you can install Python Tools (works with both CPython and IronPython intepreters). Note also that express editions (Desktop and Web) are also supported: https://pytools.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=PTVS%20Installation
