Old greybeard here - I went the other way, learning 6502 assembler on an Apple II before I learned C. Having that 6502 experience when I first took a C class helped me immensely.

I think any kind of assembly experience is tremendously helpful in learning C. Assembly makes pointers and pointer arithmetic very intuitive, in my opinion.
