How can I start working towards an AI/ML career?

As a absolute beginner to Data Science, I have recently completed the Python for Data Science at Cognitive Class. When I progressed to Data Analysis, I found myself struggling to understand the statistical concepts and syntax as it began to skip explanations.

As my lecturer did not teach us about the concepts behind statistical methods, I have little knowledge on the concepts and only know how to follow the formulas. I wish to pursue a Data Sciene internship but I doubt I can complete so many courses in a month or two.

My questions are:

  1. How do I work towards Data Science?
  2. Assuming that I'll be using ML frameworks such as scikit-learn, what are the mathematics required to achieve this? Should I start from pre-calculus?
  3. If I'm not using frameworks, what kind of mathematics would I need?
  4. What mathematics foundation would I need to start learning Data Science?
