Wow man. You got a lot of bad comments here, and on behalf of everyone, I would like to apologize.
I am pretty sure that we all have problems and difficulties while teaching English and that's why I am here trying to find some new ideas, but unfortunately I can see many people who just stopped by to criticise. You know, it's easy to whatch videos and give comments, but it's not so easy to take your time make a video and post it on youtube to help others.
@NakashimaEugenio Please don't apologise on my behalf. I have no problem with teachers trying to make videos to help others, but my issue comes when teachers like this guy (I use the term very loosely for him!) have the sheer audacity to make videos to promote their business and don't even take the time to ensure they're at least adequate - let alone good - examples of teaching practice. I mean, you can't seriously watch this video and feel anything but sympathy for his students.
A terrible teaching display. No enthusiasm, shouting at the students, speaking too fast, impolite, the list goes on. And the task itself was totally pointless. Getting groups of students to read out loud (or individual students for that matter) is utterly pointless and the crocodile (which could be put to good use) is nothing more than a pointless gimmick. New/trainee teachers: let this be a lesson in how not to teach.
Is it typical to chew gum, snap your fingers at your students, address your students as, "hey you," constantly yell, "quickly!" at your students, wear jeans with holes, and generally show a complete lack of enthusiasm in your classroom? Just wondering if this is a typical day in your class.

@emperorsgrandads Sorry! I was just trying to be nice. I understand your point of view and his, so no hard feelings?

@NakashimaEugenio how can this be helpful to anyone? but if the help you meant was to help inexperience teachers feel better, then it does.
