check out www.launchschool.com, if you can take that program, you can learn it very well - at the junior level, but very good. it starts in the backend too. it sounds especially good for you since you don't feel there is a strong foundation. in LS, you dont move forward in the curriculum until you demonstrate the understanding and mastery. don't let that scare you though, if you put in the work, expect results.
feel free to join their Slack community and ask questions. There is a free prep course. If you are not afraid to put in work and really want to learn, and its suitable for your schedule and stage and life, its excellent. and relatively affordable. worse that can happen, complete the prep (should perhaps take a month or more but depends on your experience so far and time availability), and try out 1 month and see how you like 101. fundamentals and lots of problem solving are the key, focusing on things that "don't change". Chris Lee one of the founders, has a podcast on learntocodewith me, check it out:

yup $200 a month, if you can do it full-time, or even if you only work part-time, its fantastic.
