CorelDraw, where to learn?

Hello all,
a few years ago i purchased CorelDraw 2021 at that time i bought it because a friend gifted me a mimaki cutter that i thought i would get started on using and at the time the software for that did not have a update to match with the CorelDraw 2021. So the cutter sat, and so did CorelDraw, periodically i would try to learn it and its been a frustrating road to say the least.

I now have a new machine on the way (tomorrow delivery) and it has its own software but i would like to get familiar with Coreldraw anyway since i have it. Trying to find decent resources to learn it have been hard because things keep changing, if i read or watch a video on one thing, the screen/functions don't match up so then i'm searching around for 20+ mins on where things are located(not always successful). I'm not super savvy on digital work, but willing to learn and grow.

I have affinity designer and have taken courses online for it and that has been really easy to learn compared to Corel. I know Affinity is not as in-depth as Corel, but from the learning aspect i feel Corel could do way better or maybe i'm just not stumbling across a good educational resource for it.
I learn the best by visuals
If anyone has suggestions on where to learn via video Coreldraw 2021 from a beginner's standpoint it would be appreciated.

Dammit, make it faster!!
I've used TeamViewer to do a little training. Basically converse over the phone and uses screen capture type of thing. Allows me to take control of your screen to show things but still allows you to control also. Just kind of take turns as needed. Sounds crazy unsecure but you have to really trust who you're dealing with. I enjoy teaching Corel. If I actually thought I could get paid doing it I'd start a business but in the meantime I'd be happy to train for free. Maybe a couple hours at a time though.

I use the same, myront, but to get strangers to trust you is the big thing, but understandable. I'm no expert by any means, but I do know my around most of the things, at least for my use.
