> I often struggle with large classroom learning: the pace is either too slow and I get distracted or too fast and I can't keep up.

This is a problem for everyone. People may not experience the struggle directly, but it's there. It's the inherent problem with any group class.

> I feel like there's always the tendency for people to zone out and not raise an issue when they are either bored or did not keep up/understand.

Tight loops of interaction will make this nearly impossible. What you'll have to watch out for instead is overwhelming students to the point of distress (speaking from experience).

Not only is this a problem with everyone, it's also one of the "soft" skills you learn to deal with in school. It occurs in professional and social interactions as well and school prepares for dealing with it.
