How to be quickly self taught beginner c++?

I have a young friend who's taking 1st year c++ class. The schools textbook and teachers instruction is no good. Her class consist of input, output, if statements, else if, functions, arrays, loops. Are there any good online non book courses or websites for C++?

Have you tried these sites? Intermediate to Advanced sites: - Codewars www.codewars.com - Hacker Rank www.hackerrank.com

SoloLearn has a decent C++ course.

Then I'd check out learncpp.com. It's what I'm using right now and is probably the best online option.

When i went though my first c++ class i spent 20 hours per week working on 1 assignment. Im not sure my little friend can handle that. I did alot of trail and error and taking code from Stack Overflow and testing it.

@Ben Allen (Njinx) college courses are alot harder than Sololearn. They give you very hard problems to solve that in most cases you won't find online. Sololearn courses barely touch the surface.

@Manual I tried Hackerrank and Codewars for myself to practice Java. I feel like those sites are more for people who already know how to code to go in and solve problems so that they can get a job offer. Same with code fights. I don't feel like they are good for beginners. Those kinds of websites won't accept your correct answers unless you do it in the exact way that they want it. If they want System.out. printf(); and you submit answers using System. out. println(); they will tell you that you are wrong when your answer is correct.

I just got a thumbs down. I had to like my own question to balance it to zero.
