Most people don't want to program in C, and I think my high school programming course (which used C) did more harm than good in that regard. The only students who got anything out of it had already taught themselves programming on their own!
I came back to C later and enjoyed learning it properly, but it is very much not a gentle introduction into the world of programming for the average person!
