Strang is an excellent lecturer - his videos for 18.06 (Linear Algebra) were instrumental for me in relearning the subject matter more than twenty years after I last studied it.
I used 18.06 to learn the linear algebra necessary to prepare for further study in machine learning. It was sufficient for that purpose, (I got a B and an A in CMU's 10-601 and 10-605 ML courses, respectively) but this 18.065 course is more specifically geared for that purpose. The companion book is quite good, as well.
