Your tempo and pacing are currently quite fast, which might make it difficult for the audience to follow along easily. Slowing down a bit will not only make your delivery easier to understand but also help in managing your breath control, preventing you from running out of air towards the end of your read. Including a more consistent smile in your performance can transform the tone, making it warmer and more welcoming, which is crucial for keeping the audience engaged.
While your pronunciation and enunciation are generally clear, there's a slight issue with slurring some words. Paying closer attention to articulating each word more distinctly can help resolve this. Additionally, your projection needs a boost, especially at points where it tends to drop. Ensuring your voice reaches all parts of the room is key in maintaining the effectiveness of your communication.
Overall, by adjusting your pace, enhancing your projection, and maintaining a warm smile throughout your delivery, you'll create a more pleasant and engaging listening experience for your audience. Good job!
