PSA for if your posts keep getting removed
This is one of the most common things I get messaged about. If your posts keep getting removed, it's likely that it's an issue on Reddit's side. Usually this issue is that you are "shadowbanned", which you can read up more on here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ShadowBan/
I cannot do anything to fix this, and I'll keep this post pinned but will no longer be replying to messages about this issue. Thanks!

Post Guidelines - How to get meaningful feedback
Hello all,
This post is a general guide on what you can do as someone uploading clips of your speech to try and set yourself up for getting more and better feedback from the community. A lot of this comes from my personal opinions on the types of clips I like to give feedback to, as well as what I've seen people in the community say.
1. General information
Including general information in your post can help people give more tailored feedback. For example, what sort of accent are you trying to go for? What specific things do you struggle with? Why are you trying to improve your accent (for daily speech, a job, etc.)?
2. Audio quality
Not everyone has access to a good microphone or quiet environment. However, to the extent possible, try to limit background noise. One simple method is recording under a blanket or in a closet of some form. Also, I suggest testing out your volume before recording a full clip. I pass on reviewing many clips due to them being too quiet.
3. Clip length
As other users have suggested, please try to shoot for a clip ~30 seconds or more. I think the golden window is between 0:45 and 1:30, depending on the speaker. It's going to be hard to give meaningful feedback on a single sentence.
4. Transcriptions/texts
This is personally relevant for me when it comes to foreign languages that I am not as proficient in. Nevertheless, when reading from a text, please share the text you're reading from. It saves people from having to guess what you were trying to say, and just removes an extra layer of complications from giving feedback.
This is not a final list, and feel free to share your gripes/suggestions, and I can add them to the list above.

American accent check
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I made a similar post in this subreddit a year ago, and I’m hoping my accent improved since then.
I was born and raised in South Korea, and my parents don’t speak English.
I first picked up English when I was 3~4 years old from a Filipina lady. My first exposure to American English was when I was six in Kindergarten. Afterwards, I went to an American-style international school since 3rd grade, and came to America last year for college.
I probably had a Filipino accent when I was little, but there’s no way to know for sure. I definitely had a Korean accent in high school tho.
Here’s my accent two and a half years ago in 11th grade.
As a side question, if you assumed I grew up in North America, where would you think I was from?

Hey French people and Québécois! 😊 What do you think of my French accent as an immigrant living in Canada?
I live in Quebec, but lately, I’ve mostly been listening to French from France.

Sup. Feel free to point out everything that ain't right.
I’ve received some compliments about my accent in real life but ikr that came from people who aren’t native. So that’s why I wanna hear something from somebody who’s the real deal
Also, does my accent sound like a particular state's accent? Or like a crazy mix of everything? I'm kinda curious
and btw that ain’t russian in the text message!

English Wanna Do Something Interesting? Let's Debate, Discuss & Improve!
So guys, being honest, I want to improve my English communication, broaden my perspective, and learn new things.
I'm looking for 5 people (6 in total, including me). We could debate and discuss topics anonymously through whatever medium works best, like Zoom, Google Meet, Discord, Teams, etc. We could also record ourselves and upload the videos online to see what other people think of our opinions and make our minds more open.
One day, we could debate, another day, discuss a topic, and another day, speak on a topic without preparing for a fixed amount of time, along with other communication-related activities we could think of.
We can meet every day for an hour or two, or whatever duration we all decide on. We can also decide on a time that works best for everyone. We could just use fixed anonymous names and work on improving ourselves together.
Is anyone interested?

I would greatly appreciate your feedback on how to improve my English. This is the passage I read:
"Dancing through the night until morning light was quite a delightful sight. The band kept playing one song after another, and nobody wanted to leave until they saw the first rays of sunshine coming through the windows."
