My Accent Sample 3 years later (By Ashley)
Your accent sounds neat and clear. You speaks so clearly. I'd take your accent any day over other American accents. Well done, no speech issues there. Keep it that way :) It seems to me that you exaggerate your vowels that gives an air of clarity to your accent.
Yeah, my reading has improved. I took reading class throughout high school.
I think that the reason you sound Korean is because of the way you pronounce words like "novel" and "on". That's the way that Korean people in the West say those words. Sort of like "na-vel" and "an".
Ashley, Can you record a small story for me in your accent if you dont mind? (which I really liked reading it, but want to listen to it as well). At the same time, you can improve your reading out loud :) Details can be worked out here if you agree.
You can use on-line text for a short story that you know of personally.
Or you can read something interesting from your book. I'll have something recorded for my dear cousin to listen to. She would enjoy listening to your accent. Do it in your spare time, and post it here.

I was speaking a bit low so my mom didn't think I was losing it or something. LOL.
