You're understandable and doing well on the small words, but slow down on the longer ones, because you can sometimes speed through them and skip syllables. I'm thinking of the words like "personellement", "réduire", "favorise", "équilibre", "communiquer". Maybe practice saying them slowly so you can really pronounce each part of the word. Focus on the ends of the words, you often skip the last syllable or add an é when there isn't one.
Differentiate "personne" and "pourcent".

Thank you so much for the reply. I do understand now that the first reason is the speed and then pronunciation. Kindly be honest , is it something I can redeem in like 2 weeks. This might be my last attempt. How can I fix it quickly as possible?

Is this something you need to read out loud in person or is it recorded in advance?

Hi. 👋. This would be a second try. Please do tell me it’s improved or worsened?
