1. Know your subject. Be thoroughly knowledgable of your subject. You aren' t here in your tutorial. 2. Get your thoughts together before making video.
3. Say things in order. Don' t go back and say. " oh yeah"
4. Learn the proper terminology of your subject.
5. Don' t say things like " lemme see here" and heave heavy sighs.
