Help Needed on Accent
Can you guys check out my recording and tell me what my accent sounds like and also, if it is difficult to understand to native speakers of American English?
Please give me tips to make my accent more refined and American.
Thank You.

You don't sound like someone from the US or the UK, but I had no difficulty understanding you. I played your recording to someone with less varied experience of talking to non-native speakers, and she said she thought you spoke clearly and were easy to understand. In places in the US that are rarely visited by people from elsewhere even UK English speakers sometimes have to repeat themselves to be understood, but that apart I don't think you should have too many problems.

I've talked to several people from America, Canada, Australia, and England; through online chatting services.
I found that all Americans I chatted with had no difficulty in understanding my pronunciation.
I've talked to people from Wisconsin, Louisiana, California, Florida, Nevada, Iowa, etc. So, I didn't have much difficulty.
Surprisingly, I was well understood by people f
