PHP backend, tutorials?

Question

PHP

Good afternoon, I would like to ask experienced developers what is the best way to start your journey in backend PHP?
Now I'm studying the book of Koters and Simdyanov PHP7 in the original, in principle it comes with a bang, I look at the listings from the book, I try to write something for myself, 3-4 times a week when I have time I try to solve problems on CodeWars. In principle, I like everything, but as for me, the book lacks practice or a smoother transition from simple to complex, that is, the chapters are very scattered, etc. Can you recommend php courses or books? It is desirable in English and it is desirable that the campaign of the book is proposed to implement 2-3 projects , let's say at the beginning of your journey it is a little difficult to understand what reflections and other tricky things are for. And if it's not difficult for anyone, tell me what and in what order it is better to study.
