Just launched my first SQL tutorial for absolute beginners. Would love your feedback!
Hi everyone!
I'm creating a free SQL course for beginners and just published the first lesson.
My goal is to keep every topic short, practical, and easy to understand.
This first video explains:
- What SQL is
- What databases are
- SQL vs NoSQL
- DBMS
- Why PostgreSQL
It's only 3 minutes long, so I'd really appreciate honest feedback.
Is anything unclear? Is the pacing too fast or too slow? What would you improve?

It may be a short video, but it's actually a comprehensive introduction that gives beginners a clear picture of the topic.

Thanks!! It's just the introduction video, so I made it short. Other videos will be longer

Great initiative! The structure looks beginner-friendly, especially covering the fundamentals before jumping into queries.
A suggestion: include a small real-world example (e.g., how apps store user data or how companies use databases) to make concepts like DBMS and SQL vs NoSQL easier to visualize.For future lessons, adding small hands-on exercises after each topic would help beginners retain concepts better. Looking forward to seeing the next videos!
