The story here is that I never watched a video for intuitive F2L because they were all too long. I find that I learn better from videos, but I'm also super impatient. So when I was learning, I just went to the F2L wiki page and looked at the algorithms to learn F2L.
I always didn't like teaching people F2L because it was too complicated to grasp it all at once. That all changed after I taught somebody full intuitive F2L in the 10 minutes between classes, and he just asked a few questions and practiced by himself after that. So here is my super simple F2L tutorial.
 
This is the tutorial which brought me from beginner's method to F2L. My times have slowed down as I learn to recognize the 3 patterns, but I'm getting better. And I'm sure that as my F2l improves my times will drop quite a bit as I'm now spending about half my solve time (30 seconds plus) just on the cross and F2L.
 
I'm about a month into learning CFOP. While this video is intended as an introduction to CFOP, it did give me a great way to visualize how to deal with the "white on top" cases. I too avoided watching F2L videos due to length and have had a difficult time trying to process how to deal with these cases, and this has given me a much better starting point for those. Thanks!
 
I have been getting really flustered with F2L. This video is great because it has given me a method to follow for each case. Hoping this will get me sub minute!
