SLOW DOWN

It's mildly amusing to listen to her at -50% speed. It's a little like listening to a someone on too much morphine, with powers of staying on point that are unnervingly unnatural.

These comments are demeaning.

Totally agree. A little bit slower would be better next time Allison Grayce Marshall

She doesn't seem to be speaking too quickly, but you can always slow down the video by changing the speed.

It really is a great feature for anyone who needs it.

thanks Bell

Fill in the blanks to concatenate the strings together:

"He's pining " "for" " the fjords!" "He's pining for the fjords!"

If English is not your native language, than it might seem fast. Whenever we are learning new languages it seems like people are speaking quickly, but it is just a normal pace for them. Whenever people speak in Spanish it seems fast to me unless they are speaking slowly.

That's obviously true however when you're in a classroom setting receiving instructions from a professor it's wise for the instructor to speak at a steady pace for the audience to better grasp the concepts. Especially when it's something completely new to the participant. She's speaking as if we're all at the level she is. Glad for the slowdown feature.

Gee, I'm happy to have a teacher who compresses so much important information into such a short time! I was getting a little tired of watching everything at 2x and pausing when something important came up. Maybe you should try working on your listening comprehension skills, Matt, so you can get up to speed, instead of whining about the teacher's presentation.
