Best way to learn piano

What is the best way to learn piano? I don’t want to be a classical musician. I just really want to learn how to play my favorite songs and remember how to play them. I feel like I’ve tried everything to learn and understand music but it just isn’t soaking in like I think it should. I’ve tried books, apps, even the YT guitar hero for piano type methods. I want to learn so damn bad, It just makes me feel so stupid for not understanding it

I feel stuck and it’s crippling…

In my late 20’s and I have no clue what I want to do for my associates in college. I never truly thought I would make it this far. I Just finished my pre-reqs and now nothing feels like a good choice. I have to choose a program soon but everything I’ve looked at especially with the public colleges around me looks interesting to me or it just looks too hard smh. I switched my major twice already and have talked myself out of both of them because I have a learning disability and math quite honestly shuts me down, so with that I changed my major a time or two. I truly just want to change my families life but I feel so damn ashamed of myself that I’m not good enough for anything I’ve chosen or even considered. Not having a job for years but has been maintaining school just for me to not obtain jobs precisely has put such a burden on my head. I feel so stuck, so ashamed, so stupid that I can’t even look at a math problem and not freeze. I seriously don’t know how I made it this far….I didn’t plan for this and quite frankly I am panicking about what to do next.… I truly just want to succeed and take care of myself and those around me….

Manufacturing TXFame Chapter

Has anyone by chance done the TXfame chapter for manufacturing here in San Antonio? I am leaning into applying for the Advanced Manufacturing associates degree through alamo colleges and the fame program looked like a pretty good deal as far as 2 in class days and 3 paid apprenticeship days a week. Is there anyone who has knowledge about the program that may have anything to add good or bad? I am having a hard time choosing a degree program and something that will land some stable income once I graduate. I am not great at math even the basics are hard so that crossed most of my other program options off the list. I am decent with my hands so I am gravitating towards manufacturing.

I am self teaching with piano to the best of my ability and I am using YT as a resource but I am finding that a bit tedious these days because the information is a bit advanced even though they are beginner videos🫩. Are there any book recommendations for learning music theory that are simply explained and that one could really benefit from especially if they are teaching themselves with no proper musical experience.

For ones who didn’t know chords in the beginning of their music making process, how did you all start? Did you use online resources or Youtube? Also how did you know what chords sounded right together?

Full time college student but I can’t find a job, I can’t apply for stamps because I need some kind of income, I’ve been actively applying for everything everywhere! for 2 years and have been turned down for everything I’ve applied to so I can’t even try for unemployment. I am at my absolute wits end. Trying to make ends meet with literally nothing has me spiraling. 🫩
