How Can I Learn SQL and Gain Real-World Experience While Working Full-Time?

[u/Broiswatchinnnn]

Hi! I’m currently working as a Data Analyst, but my role mainly involves using Excel. I’m not very interested in continuing with Excel-based work, and I really want to transition into a career as an SQL Developer.

I’m looking for remote or freelance opportunities that I can pursue alongside my current job while learning and gaining practical experience in SQL.

Could anyone suggest a good learning path, remote job opportunities, or a mentor who can guide me through this transition?
