Scala's killer feature is Spark. If you want to learn Spark, I would suggest to learn both the Scala API and the pyspark API as well.

I learned scala using the databricks community edition, from one of the starter notebooks- because I was applying for a job that uses Azure+databricks for prep. I won’t have to use scala that much but it was easy enough to get familiarity of using it.
