+**For python 3.11**
+To use python 3.11, you should specify the given block of config in your notebook's first shell.
+```
+%%configure -f
+{ "conf": { "spark.yarn.appMasterEnv.PYSPARK_PYTHON": "/usr/bin/python3.11",
+            "spark.executorEnv.PYSPARK_PYTHON": "/usr/bin/python3.11" } }
+```
+
 **__Important__**  
 Make sure to replace all placeholder values (marked as `XYXYXYXYXY`) with the actual credentials provided with your license.  
 If your EMR cluster is truly **air-gapped**, you do **not** need to specify `access_key_id` or `secret_access_key` in the configuration — since the `pretrained()` function cannot be used to download models in an offline environment.
