Yes! The online lectures and course notes for Stanford 229 are very good. Mike Bowles teaches classes from those materials at the Hacker Dojo here in SIlicon Valley. They go straight into the weeds and I barely kept up with the greek letters. The written materials are very well-written, with the caveat that they keep switching notations. There are different conventions in the different topics, but for a newbie it was a major headache.
Apparently he (Dr. Andrew Ng) is now doing them with the Kahn Academy video style. It might work out to do a study group in the KA style where you watch the lectures at home and then do the homework together.
