You can upload your first recorded speech here, by clicking on the Studio icon. First, you click Reply to open up a new box. Then, click on the Studio icon. That will bring you into your own Studio. You should already have recorded your video and it should be in Studio already. You could record it directly through Studio on your computer, or on your phone and then import it into Studio. I believe you can do that from the Canvas app on your phone. Once it's in Studio, please enable the Comments and also the CC. 

  A cool thing to do is to download the CC and then create an MS Word file. Clean up the CC by eliminating the time stamps, the hard breaks, and the gaps between the lines of text. That will produce what is called a "wrapped" text. You can copy and paste that wrapped text into the website tophonetics.com. You can select American English, and I would suggest side-by-side with the IPA (international Phonetic Alphabet). Then you can select an automated voice reader. You can listen to your own speech read aloud by another speaker, and you can follow along with the IPA. This is useful because it can help you focus on your enunciation and your pronunciation. 

  For help with enunciation, there are websites with exercises to help you loosen and prepare the muscles of your face which are involved in speech. Enunciation is different from pronunciation. In general, enunciation is how well you utter the sounds, and pronunciation is how the sounds sound to someone else. Well, that's a very crude way of putting it. However, enunciation can be improved through physical exercises, whereas pronunciation is more difficult to change, because it is imprinted in our brains from an early age. 

  RachelsEnglish.com is a great site which can teach you about the IPA, and can help non-native speakers of English with English pronunciation. However, her enunciation is also great, so she can be helpful to everyone. I will be posting some links to help you with enunciation as well.

  Please use toastmasters.com as well...

Thanks!
