Looking for ideas to learn DAX effectively and detailed

Hi,

I've been struggling to understand a few concepts (advanced DAX functions, row context), and the main reasonnis that when I started learning DAX, I did it way too fast and on a pace I was not able to keep up.

Watching YouTube videos looked like a good idea, but without practicing myself, I don't know how the 100th DAX course can be helpful. It's also a struggle to see that in a few cases, the topics are mentioned but I don't know if it's a beginner or an advanced content:

like.. is "userelationship" advanced or not? Are the time intelligence functions advanced or not? Is there a way to get to the point where it's worth trying to understand more advanced topics with so many lines and variables built in DAX?

 

So right now I'm looking for a step by step, well explained site, series or something that helps understand DAX, let's you build that Zero to Hero everyone's craving for.
