    "SQL Is the one language you probably should learn". Agreed! Data is the backbone of nearly every modern business. SQL is the key to that data.

    You've taught me more in 4 minutes than my teacher has done in this 3 hour class
  • The essence of a good teacher is not just to promote well performers but to take care of those not so privileged. Thank you Daniel for choosing this simple yet most useful topic for programmers.
  • @Damnsaburna
    This was so simple and encouraging for me. I have decided to pick up a language to help me get a tech job for better opportunities financially and this was so helpful. I had someone in tech give me a little advice and u even mentioned it and i just love how helpful everyone seems to be in this industry.
  • This is probably the first time in my life that anything has made so much sense when learning something technical like this 😅 I wish there was something like this for... everything! Thanks so much for breaking it down in a way that makes it so easy to understand.

    This channel is a hidden gold, I love how she explains everything. You should teach SQL
  • Wooow. Thanks so much for putting this in layman's terms. I went through hours of video with no clear explanation of SQL. You put it very plainly thank you
  • I love that you used LEGO for this! It makes a newcomer like me wondering what the heck SQL means, much more comfortable in trying to understand this, and feeling like I can try to actually go deeper in the topic. I'll sure remember Sally. Thank you!
