I have a website! It is a collection of all the links in the descriptions of my videos BUT it is NOT a replacement for watching the videos as all my tips are not included in the website, just in the videos. https://sites.google.com/view/mtcollegeresources

Tip: Look into the camera, when you're watching someone it's very difficult to make a connection or be interested in their performance with them when they're looking slightly off-camera, and it makes it awkward to watch. Disregard what I said in the video about looking to the side of the camera. Sorry for the confusion!
