Very nicely done - the proof of effectiveness of what she suggests is her own presentation. Very well done and kept my attention throughout.

Great tips! Love the advice that having a run through for tech is super important. This is especially true if you’re interviewing for a job!

That number 1 thing bothers me a lot..
I usually do great on presentations, especially the ones i have prepared well.. but, doing online presentation, i just became stiff.. not just in my movement & expression, but in my words as well..

And not to mention the problem we encountered during online session,
connection problem, cam/mic problem, forgot to turn on/off the cam/mic, etc..

Some learning / discussion are better doing offline, like, how do u expect an art class (or similar), a scientific class (like physics, biology, etc) especially those in college to understand perfectly things that should have been demonstrated face to face, huh!?

Oh Pandemic, would you stop..

Does she start by saying "virtual presenteting"?

TRY seeing an offline presentation from the same person (a spokeperson who usually do a talkshow, seminar, etc) which you can see on youtube, and TRY to compare to their online presentation..

The Offline Presentation would have been much superior than the online one.. more ways of communication, the movement, the gestures, the expression, seeing their energy (whatever it may be).. and the presentation wont be just all words / just a person in front of a camera all the time..

Heck, even the most boring class i have seen are much better offline than online..

definitely in front of the camera is better to express yourself a bit more dinamic with body language and looking at the camera, great video this is the thinks I know but not don/t do it :)
