He's hilarious, but manages to mostly keep it from hampering what he's trying to say. I think a bit of humour goes a long way in lectures if it doesn't go over the top; it gets people to enjoy it all the more.

I suppose it's a huge problem that schooling today often serves as a kind of "one size fits all" approach to education; you go into the machine at an early age and are subject to the same teaching as everyone else, which has obvious implications for the diversity of human intellects.
