acespeak gives people like us — the ones who don't normally like speaking — a lot more chances to practise. bit by bit we speak more, and we get better. that's a big impact.
after practising more with acespeak, watching the playback is what made me notice i talk too fast. i knew before, but seeing it back hits a lot harder. now when i practise i slow down and add pauses.
just now, chatting with a colleague, i noticed i'm making more eye contact instead of looking all over the place.
but acespeak still tells me i'm short on gestures and smiles.
