Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Work on smoother transitions between ideas and practice speaking more naturally without so much hesitation and repetition. Focus on planning your response before you start speaking.

Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences, to enhance the sophistication of your language.
