After posting Day 1 of my audio journal, I found it an extremely useful activity to improve my pronunciation. I realised that my tones needed a lot of practice so I will be practising tones until I get a hang of it. Today I found an extremely useful website that teaches tones. I intend to use it as I practise tones.

This is the list of tones I took from the mentioned website and pronounced them in my journal. 

 

bēn (bén) běn bèn
pāo páo pǎo pào
nāo náo nǎo nào
ē é ě è
(hě)
(hēn) hén hěn hèn
hāo háo hǎo hào

 

Please help me correct my mistakes.

I can't distinguish your first and second tones. Your second tone sounds too much like the first tone. It needs to start a little lower. 

 

Fourth tone - OK but don't make the word so long in duration.. Say it more quickly.
