    You are asking a lot with a little input.

    First what is your prior experience?
    do you learn by doing, observing, reading, or?
    Have you had geometry and algebra instruction.?
    are there local collegees?

    lots of pre reqs.

    How about starting with CAD in general rather than SW specifically.

    without geometry and a few other math courses this may be a struggle.
    I can't predict the future tho.

    Get a book and start reading
    there are older cheap books of solidworks lessons.
