About referencing Daniel's work and MIT license

[Yer-Marti]

Hi,

A couple of days ago I started following this course and I've been enjoying it. I've been taking my own notes and such and keeping them in a personal repo to follow the course. I already give credit to his work in the README.md file to both his repo and video but I was just curious about the MIT license and such. I have been researching about it but I didn't find a satisfactory answer, and I want to learn about it.

If I were to put a MIT License in my repo, how should I do it to reference his work in there? I'm not roughly copying his repo but I'm obviously taking it as a reference, so how does that work?

Thanks in advance :)
