Adel is an excellent mentor. He shows that he cares for his students' learning journey; his sessions are engaging and full of external references and suggestions on how to approach different use cases. In today's session, he covered the EDA in detail, taking time to answer questions about outliers in particular. Adel covered the technical concepts for hierarchical clustering as we went through the case and I like that he made questions to make sure that we understand important concepts. The most valuable skill that I took from today's session is that we have to explore different methods to get to a model that we consider acceptable.
