I much prefer Andrew Ng's courses as well.

I tried Fast AI, but it seems to be trying too hard to take out the math, which oddly for me (as a STEM grad) makes it much more difficult to understand.

Had to stop when I saw him using Excel spreadsheets to explain convolution.

The Excel spreadsheets is where it all clicked for me. It's not done with some magical library but with simple math being performed on some weights.
