This is too dry.
Hendrik Godbersen
Dear Philip, Thank you for your comment. I am aware that I can improve my videos with regards to an "entertainment" factor. So far I solely focused on content. The videos are similar to parts of lectures I would read in university. I will think of different formats as soon as I find a bit of time. It will be a bit tricky though as I am not willing to compromise on the quality of the content for "entertainment" purposes. Cheers, H
