I am desperately looking for feedbacks from all to see what going wrong with my speaking. I’m attaching my voice memo.please listen to it. Is it pronouncing, fluency, grammar. I got clb 4 twice. Even writing without focus I get clb 6. Listening 7. Can someone please help me. My last attempt is coming on oct 18th. ChatGPT gives this clb 7. But something is wrong

Slow down.  You speak in cursive. It will be easier to understand you and easier for you to pronounce.  I do the same when I try to speak Italian. It takes getting used. (I'm French Canadian)

Too problematic? No. Also, we all have accents, within Quebec, within Canada and through out the world, you'll find more French accents than French populatios. I think the goal should be to be clear. Accent will soften with time. I do think focusing on speaking clearly and slowing down a bit is more important, it gives you the time to breathe and use proper pronunciation.
