Polished transcript:

Male Female

Actually, yes. I try to reply to emails and messages as soon as I receive them. I hate waiting for people to respond, especially when it's important. For example, if I'm planning my day and I text my students about class times, it bothers me if they don't respond right away, even if I see they've read the message. It makes it hard to plan my day properly.

Actual audio transcript (What native speakers are likely to hear):

Actually, yes. As soon as I receive a message, I answer it, because I hate keep, uh, waiting for people to reply to my messages, especially when a message is important for me. Uh, for example, I am planning for my tomorrow, and I’m texting my students about time of their classes. They don’t respond me, and I see the tick that they saw my message. It makes me a little angry because I can’t, uh, plan my tomorrow properly.
