    • Olá, Paul. Thanks for your comment! This is an advanced shorty, so it can be extra challenging to understand all of it. If it helps, you can click on the upper right corner of the player to adjust the playback speed (it’s set to “1x” by default). You can also apply different types of filters to all the content, including for difficulty. There are four levels applied to shorties: Beginner, Easier, Medium and Advanced. Hope this helps!

  • i set it to 0.8X for the first couple of times then 0.9X and finally when I feel comfortable at normal speed . It really helps my self confidence .Thank you for the hint Joseph .
