One more thing before you go...
Learn to turn minutes-long queries into millisecond results... without being a DBA
What's Inside:
Module 1: Find the queries that are slowing you down
Run pre-built scripts to surface slow queries on your database (Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, and Postgres) so you know exactly where to focus.
Module 2: Read an execution plan without getting lost
The execution plan goes from a mysterious black box to something you can actually read, and use to identify exactly what's slow and why.
Module 3: Add the right indexes to dramatically cut query time
Learn when indexes help, when they don't, and exactly which ones to create, including covering indexes that can transform performance on certain query types.
Module 4: Rewrite queries using strategies you should almost always use
Learn how to remove what's unnecessary, avoid common performance killers like DISTINCT, and compare before/after results so you know you haven't broken anything.
Module 5: Apply the strategies that make a real difference when they apply
CTEs, joins vs subqueries, CASE instead of UNION: learn when and why these rewrites improve both readability and performance.
Module 6: Use the advanced techniques worth knowing about
Pagination performance, function calls that avoid subqueries, choosing the right data types: the less-obvious strategies that can make a significant difference.
32 lessons across 6 modules. Average lesson length 5–10 minutes.

"A good investment"
"Your Write Faster SQL course is a good investment. The approach is interesting in that you are showing the same lessons against 4 different database engines. That helps developers understand the bigger picture rather than just ‘how to’ for their most common/only database"
- Doug T, course student
"Reduced our cloud costs"
"After the Database Star training, I did identify all the worst running queries on my production databases and fixed them and that reduced our cloud costs."
- David B, course student
"Best training material on SQL anywhere"
"It’s the best training material on SQL anywhere. You have a rare gift for making the complex simple. Thank you for all you do!"
- Brad C, course student
What This Is Not
This isn't a beginner SQL course. It picks up where the basics end.
It's not a DBA-level deep-dive either.
It's the practical system a working data analyst or developer needs to understand why queries are slow and fix them, taught clearly, without wasted time.
Average lesson length is 5–10 minutes. You can work through a module during a lunch break.
30-Day Money Back Guarantee
I'm very confident that this course can help you improve the performance of your SQL queries.
