Sounds ragtime-like, very enjoyable.
Great job, and you've got a powerful voice! Let's take a closer look at a few aspects of your delivery. First, consider taking bigger, deeper breaths to enhance your projection. While your projection is generally good, this extra breath support can give your voice even more resonance and impact. Next, think about the emotional tone you want to convey to your audience. Remember, your voice carries not only words but also emotions. Understand the purpose of your read and the feelings you want to evoke in your listeners. Whether it's excitement, motivation, or curiosity, let your voice reflect these emotions. Regarding pacing, it's crucial to strike a balance. While varying your pace can add dynamic elements to your delivery, maintaining a steady and clear pace is essential. Your audience won't have a script to follow, so it's essential to ensure that they can easily follow your words. Slowing down a bit can help with this. I appreciate your willingness to leave mistakes in your recording; it's a valuable practice. Whenever you encounter an error, don't hesitate to take a brief pause and use reactive breaths to reset. There's no need to rush through your words, and this technique can help maintain the flow of your delivery. It's only been one week, and you're already doing well. We'll continue to delve deeper into these aspects in the coming weeks, so keep up the good work!
