I've just learned who my videos appeal to, this guy's videos are about tourism in India so that 15 seconds stuff doesn't matter. If your viewers are little kids though it probably does.

1) Make sure your content is great quality, particulary the first few seconds.

(I checked your videos. The videos are great, lots of good information, but you are using text to speech software I think? That robotic voice is a big turnoff. Why do you use it? Who is your target audience? I'd strongly recommend you use a human commentator. I think this is your biggest problem. It just sounds so impersonal. )
2) If you're using SEO techniques, make sure the keywords you are targeting do in fact reflect the content of the video.
3) If you're using custom thumbs, make sure they too reflect the content of the video.
4) Make short videos (less than 15 minutes). The longer it is, the more the viewer will realise he'll never finish it and he'll quit earlier.

Note that points 2 and 3 above will increase audience retention at the expense of views, but that's not a bad thing.
 
I would say that first impression is best impression but 15 seconds is most important rather than other.....
 
Crown summed it up quite well I think. A narrator in my opinion is the most important part of a educational video. I mean who would you be more interested from learning from, a robotic voice, or Bill Nyes, Morgan Freeman. The narrative is a way to express your passion for the particular subject, which in turn spark other peoples interest. Even if you don't have the greatest voice, if you sound interested in what your making others will find it interesting aswell.
