Hi Subway,

I believe you have a good pronunciation and you can be easily understood, which is most important. Perhaps you do speak a little slowly but everyone has their own different personality and I don't see that is a problem. Overall your pronunciation is accurate and everyone can understand you.

Hi Subway,

I'll second Alan's comments, your pronunciation is good and very understandable. Whoever made the comment about "speaking like a drunk person" was being a bit unfair, in my opinion, and I wouldn't give their comment much credit. I suppose that they were commenting on the fact that you speak a little slowly, but as Alan said, not everybody speaks with the same speed. Indeed, it's preferable to speak a bit more slowly and easily be understood, then speak so fact nobody can understand what you say.
