It doesn't matter about the audio, this guy is hard to hear/understand, just saw him today. He talks so fast that you don't have time to register a thought on the bits you do hear...
Honestly never. If you want to have to be entertaining and energetic every day and provide extrinsic motivation for your students to learn, this guy's shallow approach is good enough. The key to student learning is intrinsic motivation... making learning matter to your students' lives. Intrinsically motivated students don't need you to parade around in a pirate costume and act ridiculous, they just need to know you care about them.
Cute presentation at the end but did I learn anything from this talk? No. Maybe this is a bad sample, but if I were sitting in his class I would zone out after a few minutes. No pace. No slowing down to emphasize important points. No pauses to let me think for myself & learn. Cute trick at the end but I didn’t learn anything. IMO he should be a magician. I’ll still give his book a try from the library bc another teacher I trust recommended it, but this video is really poor.
I got to see Dave Burgess do a presentation at the AMLE national conference in Columbus last Friday. This guy is incredible.
Again pity about the audio but worth persevering! Amazing presenter.
If the audio bothers you, zip ahead to 6:00.
Not all heroes wear capes!
The audio isn't that bad, people. Completely ok. Get INNOVATIVE and try wearing earphones. :D Great speaker.
Great audio!
Awesome presentation, bro!!! Unfortunately, your mic is only rated for "average boring speaker", not "INSANE PIRATE DUDE".
I am currently reading his book for my college class!😆
4:25 this man was years ahead in the meme game

This video needs closed captions.
The bad audio is short and clears up after about a minute.
The audio gets better at 5:52 keep on listening
It would be nice if this video had a close captioning option to assist with the bad audio.
Would've loved to watch this but the audio is horrible. :(
5:25 - 5:32 says it all.
very difficult to hear
When should we use PIRATE?

The audio does improve. Keep listening.
The audio is really distracting.
This audio is hilarious
It was really good, up until the point where my eardrums exploded...
Some really poor audio after a certain point.
Too bad the audio is horrible
Poor audio...

Sound is terrible. Unwatchable
