There is a little icon on the bottom right side that will bring up a bar that can slow it way down or speed it up to 2x's as fast. Just adjust it as you need. I found some of the teachers were much more understandable at 1.75 speed myself.

On the play bar at the bottom of the video...

on the right side, there is an icon of the number 10 with an arrow going around it that jumps back 10 seconds

next to that is a little time face icon which is what you want. Hover over it and a bar will pop up that you can adjust the speed with.

It looks like it depends on what you are using. I use a desktop computer and am using Chrome as other browsers have caused me issues. From what I read online, the feature may not be available on tablets. Unfortunately that is where the icon is at and, I don't see any other way of enabling that. It might be worth a write to the actual support for the site.

Hi,

I have used Safari, Opera, Chrome, Explorer, Firefox and still unable to reduce the speed of the video. I have used two different laptops and still see the same issue. Can someone PLEASE PLEASE help me. I need to finish this course asap. If I open any other course, the speed is normal but unfortunately speed is way to high for this Python course that I couldn't understand a single word what Kenneth is saying. Your immediate reply will be appreciated.

Thanks.

On a macbook (Sierra 10.13.4), using Chrome (65.0.3325.181), and I don't see a way to control the video speed.
