Hi everyone! :) Can you listen to this audiorecord (this is preface of Mark Twain's The Adventures of Tom Sawyer) and say do I have any accent? And if I have one then what accent is this? Is it strong?
 
You certainly have an accent. It is very clear from your pronunciation, your stress and your pauses etc that you are not a native speaker. I have purposely not looked at your member profile and I would guess that you are either from Asia (Japan, Korea, Thailand) or somewhere in the area of Russia or the Baltic States.
