Successful Public Speaking: a series of videos by Dante Mena
















His series of 16 brief (one or two minute) YouTube (and eHow) videos is like having a friendly uncle explain what to do, and what not to do. Mr. Mena lives in Budapest, and he wrote the Hungary Adventure Guide. His background also includes acting, and doing voiceovers in Hollywood. I previously referred to his video on body language in a June 11, 2009 post about gestures. The whole series of videos is worth looking at:
