Hope everyone is having a great day!

I’m a 4th-year AI Engineering undergraduate who is deeply passionate about **Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL)**. I have a solid theoretical understanding of ML concepts, but I’ve been struggling with implementing models **from scratch**.

While I can follow along with tutorials and courses (I completed the Machine Learning Specialization and am now diving into the Deep Learning Specialization), I often feel **completely lost** when trying to code without guidance. It’s been a challenge I’ve overthought for **two years now**.

To overcome this, I started participating in Kaggle competitions, particularly introductory ones, and building models step by step. However, I still feel that **my progress isn’t enough** , and I’d love some advice on how to improve my ability to code ML/DL models independently.

If anyone is willing to **provide feedback on my notebooks** or share **guidance on becoming more confident in implementation** , I’d greatly appreciate it!

Here’s my Kaggle profile:
