Looking for Feedback on My Blender Tutorial Channel – Speech, Style & Engagement

Hey everyone,

I recently started a YouTube channel called **Nexus**, where I share educational tutorials focused on Blender — and soon, After Effects as well.

Here’s one of my latest tutorials:  
▶️ [Modeling & Shading a Realistic Coffee Kettle in Blender](https://youtu.be/i5WZxlrTWo8)

I'm trying to improve the overall **quality of my tutorials**, and I’d love to hear your honest feedback, especially on:

- The **clarity and fluency of my English** (English is not my native language)
- The **structure and pacing** of the tutorial
- How **engaging** the delivery feels
- Anything that could help me improve the channel or individual videos

I’d truly appreciate any constructive criticism — even tough love!  
Thank you so much in advance 🙌

    Well not a tutorial expert here so bear this with a grain a salt . I have my own tutorials on yt and if you put me to watch them with a gun to my head I would die of cringe . So what I am gonna say kind of applies to me as well . 

    While it is useful sometimes to have the user feel and see your thought process it makes the video longer and your need to fill up the dead time of just dragging the geometry in the right place you end up making long sounds like "umm" and "aahhh " . If you wanna make a tutorial on it try making the model once or twice before hand so you better know what are you gonna show and what you want people to learn from you . This will also shorten the video . 

    It would be helpful to have like a breakdown in the intro of how you plan to make it , maybe even study the reference . I feel too few tutorials actually teach people how to look at pictures . And slow or repetitive tasks like sliding edges , adding bevels and moving stuff into proportions can be sped up a bit . 

    A video provider that I really enjoy isn't even really making tutorials but you learn art fundamentals from his journey  . He is borodante  . He has introspection moments where he brings out new information about his art , process and what he is going to do and then he does it into a timelapse . And whenever he feels like he has something useful to tell it just reverts back to real time talk . 

    And since I can't make good tutorials my best videos are actually speed sculpts :D

    Sounds strange but having a script helps a lot. Probably trendy to have a live stream If you are famous, but for a straight tute not so much. Make the video with the sound track. Then write down the spoken part getting rid of the ums and ahs. Rehearse the spoken part till it becomes fluent, Then record yourself reading from the script and place it in the video, editing the spaces and timing where phrases fit and so on. Just like they do in the movies!

    I love your accent but for clarity I would use a text to speech software to make everything crystal clear.
    Pacing is not great. You can fix that with editing. Cut out the dead bits and pieces and tighten up the delivery.
