I started this course but really struggled with their strong accents (although subtitles are available)
Guess I know how the rest of the world feels now watching American tutorials.
- bjz_ 8y agoMost other English-speaking people in the world deal with different accents reasonably often in media and their lives, the American accent most of all. I think it's more that it's easy for American's to live in a bubble, because the country is so large - it's sometimes odd to see American media putting subtitles on strongly accented but otherwise perfectly intelligible english speakers, for instance.
- Tempest1981 8y agoBeyond the 2-minute intro video, the audio became very faint, with background noise like a fan humming. Made it tiring to listen to. (Does it get better later?)
- dmitriid 8y agoIf you’re on a Mac, it might be CoreAudio acting up. Try sudo kill-ing coreaudiod (disclaimer: I haven’t seen the video in question, but I had a similar problem with online videos in general)
- devmunchies 8y agoI don't see other videos other than the intro. It says the course doesn't start until next month.
