You sound like you're giving a lecture in front of the class after smoking weed. You're very boring, to put it mildly. Turn up the volume after you describe something and let the audio be heard. Edit the shit out of your videos. Do these things and you'll get more viewers, that is if your content is good enough, of course. That or give up, 'cause this is just awful.
Also, change your avatar, I don't like it, mmkay.
Talking loudly makes my voice more annoying, and I naturally want to talk fast but always have a stuttering problem when I do. I get around this by forcing myself to talk slower. It's the only way, sadly. Sounding more assertive, I have no idea how I'd do that. I admit I have poor charisma, and usually I can hear the video bits after I'm done talking quite fine. Is there a problem with them on your end?
They just sound lower than when you're talking, when it should be the opposite in a way. I don't know much about editing though, so I can't really explain that better. It's just something I observed in similar videos and it works well.
I don't think it's about charisma, I think it's about acting like a showman, even if it sounds ridiculous to you at first. Practice makes perfect. Or not even that, you could have whatever tone of voice you want, but still you've got to try and be more assertive. It's not impossible, anyone can do it. We have to want to listen to what you're saying, you have to deliver the point that you're worth listening to.
Don't read too much into my criticism anyway, it was just a first impression, I may be wrong. Anyway, you didn't ask for it, so that was kind of rude of me.
