Kind of like public speaking, but I'm more comfortable.
Haha, I feel ya.
But this is what you do:
Read everything you write down on a script, and read it out loud as much as possible, whenever you can (don't need to record).
Once you've read it a billion times, you'll start to memorize some things, and you'll read is so much more fluently.
After you got that stuff down, run some practice courses while recording until you get the hang of it, then make a final draft/recording.
OR
You can memorize all of your script, but have a note card with just little hints on what to talk about, and elaborate/inform while you're recording.
If it's a tutorial, then all you gotta do is know what you're doing and add a little background information if you want to keep people interested.
