Where to start to become a data analyst
I'm starting a journey of learning so I can become a data analyst. I went on SQLZoo to get myself started but I came across a couple of challenges that left me frustrated and ready to give up, I had to go up and down looking for resources to help me.
My solution right now is learning SQL, Excel, PowerBI and other tools on a platform with proper structure like I'm used to doing from the time I was in school. I wanted to do the Google Analytics Course on Coursera but I read a lot of reviews saying it's "fluff", I've also been checking Data Camp and others, FreeCodeCamp has this really long video and I got instantly overwhelmed.
What's the best place to get started on my journey, that has a clear syllabus and can give me tasks so I know how I'm doing while maybe giving me projects as well that could get me a step ahead to land my first job. An added bonus is if I can get it for free or not too expensive.
Any tips and advice will be highly appreciated.
