Hi everyone. I'm making a spanish lesson thingie online for people and I'm trying to find a spanish voice over person and I was wondering if I could get some feedback on this voice from people learning spanish.

I think it's pretty clear and professional sounding and was wondering would you be happy learning Spanish listening to this voice?

Thanks a million

Hi Perezjose

I'm glad your first post was the answer to my question

Thank you for your feedback.

What do you think about the fact there are many Spanish accents out there? Maybe some American people would prefer to learn with someone with a more Mexican Spanish accent? Really I want to get one voice that would be suitable for a world wide audience, as much as possible. Because recording lots of voices becomes costly and also technically challenging to say which voice does which person hear.

Do you think this Spanish voice is okay for an international learning community?

There are lots of spanish accents, even in spain. Maybe the accent of Andalucia is the hardest one.

Speaking about America, Im not sure but i think american people speak mexican because there are a lot of mexican people living in usa and they are getting use to speaking it. i couldnt tell you what accent is more common it depends on what is your target. In Europe the accent from spain is more common.

the voice is perfect for learning because is neutral and very well pronounced.

Sounds nice and clear, i am studying Spanish (Castellano) and that voice is easy to listen too... some recordings i have heard are shockingly bad, or in some instances the recording quality is crap, it can put you off listening sometimes, but the one you posted sounds good!!
