I see both sides of this issue in my classes. I see some students getting frustrated because they have to wait for others who take more time to do everything. But I recognize that many people first get "into" guns because they want to carry for self defense, so a CHL class is some of the first training they seek. If a CHL class gets them started on learning, I'm thrilled.
To help them prepare, I have a pre-course info sheet that tells them about the class and what's expected of them. It encourages them to be proficient enough to handle their gun and pass the shooting proficiency before their class date, emphasizing that this is not a "how to shoot" class. But if someone shows up needing some instruction, I still accommodate them. I put them on a later firing relay and let one of the range staff work with them before firing. (Because we shoot before the range opens, someone is always available.) It is amazing what a short block of instruction can do for a new shooter. And if someone has to try a second time to pass, I usually have them do it after the class so I can spend more time with them.
