I’m looking for a patient, technically-strong coach who can take me from “interested user” to confident practitioner of MySQL—specifically the HeatWave edition running on MySQL Server—and then show me how to plug that knowledge into the rest of my analytics stack. Here’s what I want to accomplish with you: • Master the core MySQL syntax, schema design, indexing, and performance tuning features unique to HeatWave. • Build hands-on confidence administering databases: backups, user management, security, and resource monitoring. • Learn, step-by-step, how to connect MySQL to Python using numpy and pandas for EDA, as well as to Excel via VBA and to Power BI for reporting. • See practical examples of pushing data from MySQL into simple deep-learning workflows so I understand the entire pipeline. Acceptance criteria 1. By the end of our sessions I can write and explain advanced queries, optimise them, and troubleshoot common bottlenecks on my own. 2. I can set up a repeatable connection flow from MySQL to Python, Excel VBA, and Power BI without guidance. 3. I can load a sample dataset, perform EDA in pandas, train a basic neural-network model, and send predictions back to the database. Please tell me how you normally structure learning, share any teaching examples or previous work that proves you can guide a beginner to this level, and outline your proposed roadmap so I know exactly what I’ll be learning week by week. I’m eager to start and, more than anything, I simply want to learn.
