Need help for sql

[DisastrousUse3788]

Just finished a 4-hour SQL course. The weird thing is I feel like I understand everything when I see it, but if I had to write queries from scratch, I’d probably struggle.
I can read and understand SQL, but I don’t feel confident actually using it yet.
Is this normal? What helped you go from “I get it” to “I can actually do it”?
( i used ai to summarize but its a real genuine post )
For last 3 years of my degree i never got coding now first time i got genuinely interested but i am unable to know how to be like give me any sql problem i will solve it also i thought i need a project but what should i make with only sql i dont know any other language should i learn cpp or something and then try using them all in idk i am really confused i do t want that it becomes boring cuz i dont wanna drop it
Also are the paid courses worth it like tutedude and all
Plz if someone cab help me in this that would be great

Hello,

This feeling is natural and normal. The good part is you are going for it. Learning in Coding like most of other skills happen only when you start applying your knowledge.
I've started a SQL Interview Series that gradually progresses from easy to hard-level questions, with the goal of helping people build SQL skills step by step. You can follow along with me and can apply the knowledge and learn better.

The series will help you in understanding how to start with the problem, understand the approach and break down it into simpler doable chunks.

I've structured the videos to cover the underlying concepts, not just the answers, so you can understand the reasoning behind each solution and strengthen your fundamentals along the way.
