Suggestion for self paced tutorials

Are there choices of instructors for the online tutorials? The ones I have experienced so far talk and move way to fast. It's a waste of time to try to follow.

Any suggestions?

    I went through almost all the tutorials. They switch up the instructors quite a bit.

    I have learned to slow the videos down, so that has help. But I'm still curious if this just me, or are others experiencing the same thing? Just getting old I guess!

    @jack_erhart - I have the same problem with many of the tutorials, especially when the subject is completely new to me.  I put that down at least partially to a somewhat aging brain.

    To me, all instructional videos need to have variable speed and well done captions.  Everyone is going to want to use variable pacing...

    Hit the ? button and do a search in the help file, works for me, better than the tutorials.

    I have posted a series of self paced tutorials (Ad-Free and no sign-up) appropriate for all users and paced at a rate that are easy to follow.  Feel free to use them or share them with your students.  https://cadvideotutor.com

    I find that the captions are well typed but not well timed. I would like to see more attention paid to leaving captions on the screen long enough to read what they say without opening the search video function.

    I think the captions are autogenerated by YouTube...
