I have been watching these videos again and again to get my fingering right. Hard work but rewarding as I know I am correcting myself on the mistakes that I make again and again as I observe how Warren played the scales. They are very useful. There are occasions where my left-hand finger started on a key from the wrong octave. Self-correction kicks in after watching the videos again.

I have always played scales with my own fingering, as I often forget the proper fingering method. The faster the pace, the less importance I have on fingering. Is there advice that can help with fingering and tempo?

Although I learned my scales years ago (literally), it is still a good refresher. I also like that Warren reiterates the benefits of learning scales and the proper fingering for playing each one. I have learned that in my day-to-day playing, there are certain fingers I rarely use (particularly my left ring finger). Scales helps ensure each finger gets proper exercise.

I browsed around and compared your course to others (price and quality wise). It was a waste of time. I concluded that the price is well worth it and after getting the first few lessons, I realized that my conclusion was more than correct because you over delivered in quality of contents. However, I wish you had a one time lifetime payment option.
@Karen Dickinson, When the tempo goes up, consistent fingering actually becomes more important, not less. Here’s a simple approach:
Pick one fingering and stick to it for each scale every time you play it. No “custom” changes.
Practice slowly, hands separate, and focus on which finger plays which note (even quietly saying the numbers can help).
Use small chunks (3–4 notes at a time), loop them until they feel easy, then connect the chunks.
Add the metronome later: once you can play a scale 5–10 times in a row with no fingering mistakes, then start increasing the tempo in small steps.
