This blog will share the top YouTube channels that shaped my data science career. I want to thank each of the creators for providing this content, and I will also share a link to my favorite video from their channel.

StatQuest with Josh Starmer:
This channel is my go-to channel for studying the basics, brushing up on my concepts, or studying the concepts for the first time. His style is unique, and the visualizations are amazing.

Favorite Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIYKR4sgzI8

Applied AI Course:
This is another excellent channel. Even though this is a paid course, they have a ton of material shared for free on their YouTube channel, and they also keep sharing live videos every Sunday. The instructor Srikanth Varma has this unique ability to break down complex topics and make them easy to understand. Congratulations to the AppliedAI teams on getting acquired by Scalar. I hope that they keep sharing the content on their YouTube channel.

Derek Banas:
Well, hello, Internet! This is how he starts his videos, and I use this channel to brush up on my programming skills or quickly learn or start a new one. His channel contains a ton of data science and computer science content in general.

Edureka!:
This is a vast channel and hosts a lot of content. I use this channel to prepare for interviews. The videos are a bit long, but it’s easy to find if you know what you are looking for.
