How does my accent sound?
Hi everyone, I'm just curious about my accent. How thick is my accent from a scale from 1-10. Also do you think I should get rid of my accent? how does it sound for a english speaker. Give me any kind of information about this. I was also wondering if my accent sounds like Antonio Bandera's haha becuase I know girls love his accent

Well, you do have an accent, but generally Americans love accents. I don't see any need for you to try to get rid of it -- I think people (women especially) will find it charming. The only thing I might suggest you think about when giving a presentation or in any other formal context, is that you are very soft-spoken and some words get slurred together a bit.

Diego,
Your accent is fairly mild, and I would have a hard time placing you as a native spanish speaker but I would know that you are not a native english speaker. Your english is much better than my spanish, so kudos!

Diego,
Your speech is very smooth. I can hear a Latin influence, but I think I detect a touch of British influence as well. You are easily understood in conversational English, but you need to work on how to speak in a presentation. (It something we all need to practice, not just ELLs.)
When you present to a group, when you are the main speaker, it is important to consider whic
