Describe your suggestion

When taking the SQL course, I felt as though having the learner reread stuff on SQL Bolt that they just went over on SQLTeaching.com and will go over on SQLZoo was a bit unnecessary, and almost drags it out more than it should. While I get that repetition is key to learning this stuff, I feel as though having the learner do all those unneeded lessons on SQL Bolt just drags it all out.

So, my suggestion is this: Rather than point to all of SQL Bolt's lessons, we can change it to just point to Lessons 13 to 18, as these are important and not heavily covered in other places already given to the learner. This may seem a bit nit picky, but I think it would help the learner to not feel like the lessons are being dragged out too much on stuff they've just done previously. We can, of course, tell them they are welcome to read the ones prior, but can easily just say only lessons 13 to 18 are "required".

Thinking about it after, another solution could be to just opt for ONLY the SQL Bolt lessons and remove SQL Teaching altogether - though I did find SQL Teaching's simple lessons enjoyable. Just throwing that out here as another option though.
