I’m not gonna say that I’ve learned anything but I bought a course from Udemy when it was on discount and the teacher is a good teacher. He does a zero to mastery course and I feel like I’ve learned a lot from the course than I would’ve learned anywhere else.
Teachers name is Andrei Neagoie btw

Code Academy, they don’t only teach commands but also have project based learning. So you will get Hands-on experience.

I am data engineer at L6 level in amazon. I did everything through Udemy. With around $10, you can get any topic to learn from scratch. 5 years before, I only had good SQL skills, but I don’t have much insights in programming side. Then, I started my python learning in Udemy around 2016-17. Initially just started with python, then learn how data structures and algorithms worked with different course with years passed by then try to crack some interview codes using python with data structures and algorithms. Now, I can able to do the coding effectively and with more passion. Contionous learning will improve you to become a good coder and provide more confidence in you.

I second Data Camp. I’ve gone through Google’s Data Analysis course which I also recommend because the certification does look good on your resume and they give you great resources after you finish the course. With Data Camp you’re coding through the entire process which I found useful.

I learned (and am still learning) through Codecademy, too! I tried LinkedIn Learning for a bit, but like Codecademy much more. Their interface is good, they have lots of additional resources, and the lessons are pretty clear.
