It's a little slow .. but I can understand why
Yeah, the pace is definitely geared towards absolute programming beginners, but we knew that going into it.
I'm up to my ears in work so I'm happy that the course doesn't require full attention.
That's the trouble. If it moves at a faster pace, it requires more attention, thus being a harder fit into an already busy schedule with work/family/life/etc.
I've noticed that you have been answering questions too, so it seems you're doing OK with it.
