I loved your Weelearn read. I can learn from your prosody, and warm, reassuring tone. I liked the pace and was engaged throughout. As a newbie it was hard for me to point out an area for improvement, except to enunciate the word “confidently” more, I heard “Cofidently”.
I liked JCPenney too, real and relatable. I would stress on the key word “two” and use distinct tones for the right side and left side lines. Also try a big smile on the word happy. Great read overall.
I like your upbeat energy and tone. I heard a slightly long pause before “with fancy extensions”. Loved the way you said “don’t lie”. I would also add a little stress on “real” as it’s a repeated key word. I’m a newbie so hope my feedback is on point:)
I really liked your Salinas read. You hit the company name well and the benefits – it sounded like you really care about the practice’s patients. I detected a hint of catching your breath in places, not sure if this was due to the long run-on sentences. Maybe you could work on finding a few more places to take a breath?
Your Walgreens read was nicely varied in pitch and engaging. “After more than a century of business” almost sounded like a question, I wouldn’t raise intonation quite so high.
Overall I thought you did a great job with both reads.

I like your tone, sounds rich and articulate. In both reads I noticed a pattern of downward intonation (except the end of Hemingway). You could try varying the pattern. Also it sounded slightly “choppy”. List-Jumbo was smoother and I liked your energy. I thought the word “epic” could be stressed a little more, but overall great stuff!

Hi everyone! I’m a first timer on the forum, sharing a couple of (raw) narration pieces before my coaching session. I’m just setting up my home studio and trying out my DAW so no fancy editing or acoustics here. I’d be grateful for your feedback and areas for improvement (loads I’m sure!)
Thanks so much 🙂

The heart is a remarkable organ. It is a muscle that relaxes and contracts, pumping blood carrying oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
The steady rhythm of these contractions is controlled by electrical impulses that travel through the heart, first through the upper chambers, called the atria; and then through the lower chambers, called the ventricles.
In order to reach the ventricles, electrical impulses must pass here, at the atrioventricular node.
