✅ What the Speech Test Looks For
| What It Checks | How You Can Pass |
|---|---|
| Voice clarity and volume | Speak clearly and at a normal volume — not too soft or too loud |
| Sentence accuracy | Read exactly what’s shown on screen, word for word |
| Background noise | Find a quiet room and close windows, doors, and background apps |
| Mic input quality | Use your laptop mic or a basic headset — avoid covering it with your hand or clothes |
🗣️ Tips to Pass as a Non-Native Speaker
- Don’t rush. Read at a calm, steady pace - clarity matters more than speed.
- Speak naturally. No need to fake an accent or over-pronounce.
- Practice aloud once before clicking “Start Recording”.
- If you’re unsure of a word, sound it out confidently — don’t skip or replace it.
- Avoid filler sounds like “uh”, “umm”, or whispering.
