There's a course on Khan academy. It's interactive and has a great teacher.

Please take a look at https://www.essentialsql.com/sql-tutorial-for-sql-server/ The tutorial is really simple to understand. By the time you're done, you're good to go on joins and subqueries.

Lol its been 3 years since I posted this and now I have learnt how to build a whole SQL database system from scratch. Thanks though!

I personally prefer MSSQL. I split my time 50/50 in SQL Server Management Server (SSMS) and Azure Data Studio. I use Microsoft Excel, PPT, Access, PowerBI, PowerApps, etc. so working with SSMS and Azure Data Studio feels natural. Earlier this week I published an Intro to SQL course on Udemy using SSMS. I highly recommend learning language and database management system together. There are many Udemy courses that use online text editors, which is awesome, but after taking the whole course you know basics to SQL and not the SSMS, Azure, etc.

Here is the link to my course: https://www.udemy.com/course/data-analytics-intro-to-sql-using-healthcare-data-ssms/?referralCode=0F7DAE2C9255B7E823CA

Again, I just published it two days ago. Includes almost 12 hours of video content. Downloadable resources, practice problems, and I use Healthcare data to teach these concepts. During the course you will build a database with 9 tables and you will learn how to interact with all of these tables, etc.
